I'm a radiology SpR (a resident) in the UK. I'm really enjoying my IR attachments so far, and want to specialise in the field. We're being encouraged to look at fellowships abroad, and I need to start thinking about where I want to go.
(Now I know there are huge issues with visas, board certification and so on as an IMG coming to the USA or Canada. So I'm asking this question while temporarily forgetting about those issues!)
Who are the big names in Interventional Radiology in North America? Who are the giants, the rock stars, the great mentors and the one doing the most innovative procedures?
All other things being equal - family, location, everything really - who would you love to work under if you got the chance?
(Sorry if this sounds a bit ambiguous or airy-fairy, but I'm completely unfamiliar with the bigwigs in IR in North America, and this forum seems to be full of great info so far!)
