The Medical University of South Carolina offers a comprehensive ACGME accredited one-year Neuroradiology fellowship. The faculty is comprised of six ASNR members with extensive clinical, teaching and research experience. The faculty members have published over 200 peer-reviewed and review articles as well as numerous book chapters and have been invited speakers at major national and international meetings. They have received a number of teaching awards and have been involved in many scientific projects, including federal funding support.

At MUSC, there is a rich mix of clinical material in brain, spine, and head and neck pathology. Many multidisciplinary conferences are held on a weekly or biweekly basis, such as neurovascular, refractory epilepsy, head and neck tumor board, brain and spine tumor board, pediatric tumor board, neuroradiology case conference. Equipment includes three 1.5T and one 3T state-of-the-art MR scanners, two 64-slice and three 16-slice CT scanners, a state-of-the-art biplane 3D DSA room, and a PET/CT. Dual source CT scanner is being installed and a new, top of the line 3T MR scanner is scheduled for the next year. MR perfusion, MR proton spectroscopy, CTA, and CT perfusion studies are routinely performed. Imaging, invasive diagnostic, and interventional procedures abound: on average there are over 90 imaging studies a day, CT-guided biopsies, spinal procedures, diagnostic catheter angiograms and microcathether interventions in intracranial, head and neck, and spinal cases are performed on a daily basis. Functional MRI and diffusion tensor imaging research and clinical studies are performed with multidisciplinary participation.

There is also a small animal MR laboratory with primary interest in brain and spinal cord imaging within the department. Neuroradiology fellows are strongly urged to participate in the many educational and research opportunities available at MUSC and are provided with academic time.  Candidates who are American Board of Radiology (or equivalent) eligible are preferred.
