Augusta University Medical Center (AUMC) is a Comprehensive Stroke Center and level one trauma center. AUMC shares a campus and is attached to the Childrens Hospital of Georgia which serves as a level 4 NICU and regional safety net hospital. Our Neuroradiology section performs over 50,000 neuroimaging studies annually with state-of-the-art equipment including three 3T MRIs, two 1.5T MRIs, and four multidetector CT scanners, which are split between hospital and outpatient imaging settings.
Diagnostic modalities covered in the training program include x-ray, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), CT angiography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), MR angiography, fetal MRI, diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), functional MRI (fMRI), MR spectroscopy (MRS), and other advanced imaging techniques including CT and MR perfusion. Neuroendovascular procedures are performed in two state-of-the-art biplane angiography suites. Fellows have the elective opportunities to rotate in our active neuroendovascular surgery service with rotations also available in neurovascular ultrasound, anesthesiology pain management, and neuropathology.
In addition to diagnostic training, the program provides trainees with extensive hands-on procedural experience utilizing fluoroscopy, ultrasound, CT, and conventional angiography including but not limited to; cervical and lumbar punctures (diagnostic and/or therapeutic), intrathecal chemotherapy, subarachnoid medication injections, myelography, epidural blood patches, pain management procedures, sclerotherapy, vertebral augmentation (vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty, sacroplasty), medial branch radiofrequency ablation (RFA), spinal radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and a gamut of head, neck, and spine biopsies and drainages.
Fellows are integral members of the Neuroradiology service and actively contribute to all aspects of daily patient care. In addition to image interpretation, fellows complete pre-procedure patient evaluation, perform procedures, and manage post-procedure patient care. The department provides opportunities for fellows to participate in teaching conferences, didactic lectures, journal clubs, and morbidity & mortality conferences. Ongoing multi-disciplinary conferences and tumor boards (e.g. neuro oncology, head and neck surgery, pediatric, epilepsy, neuroendovascular) also supplement the clinical experience.
Fellows are encouraged to play an active role in tailoring their training experience to help best prepare them for their future practice needs. Fellows work closely with seven board-certified neuroradiologists, six of whom also hold Certificates of Added Qualification in Neuroradiology. Three faculty members are senior members of the American Society of Neuroradiology, and all faculty members are academically productive with a range of research projects available for collaboration.
