Torn between Body MRI or MSK for fellowship? Any advice? My program allows 6 month mini fellowships during fourth year, will do that for the specialty I end up not picking. Any insight will be appreciated.
There existed an old fellowship called “body mri” where you did neuro, abdominal, and msk.Yeah fellowship is body/abdominal imaging focused on MRI (big name tertiary center, ~8 months MRI, 2 months CT, 1 month elective).
My perception is that body MRI tends to be more challenging and thus requires more training, as opposed to CT predominant training so makes sense to get extra training in that. There seems to be plenty of demand for body people in PP, so I don't get why you refer to it as a "dying fellowship".
Gotcha sorry misread your post. Ok makes senseThere existed an old fellowship called “body mri” where you did neuro, abdominal, and msk.
It was a fellowship in a modality, not an organ system. That’s why I clarified if it was abdominal or “body”.
While Hopkins (for example) has such a fellowship, it is generally thought better to do an organ system focused fellowship rather than a modality one.
