Department Overview Radiology at the University of California San Francisco combines trailblazing research, outstanding education, and clinical excellence in a leading academic health sciences institution. Our faculty includes some of the foremost names in diagnostic and interventional radiology today. Our clinical programs, featuring sub-specialty expertise, span our four hospitals: Moffitt / Long Hospitals, San Francisco General Hospital (SFGH), Mt. Zion Hospital and the San Francisco Veterans Affairs Hospital. We offer the full spectrum of clinical applications and techniques on state-of-the-art equipment. With our four sites, we perform more than 500,000 procedures annually. We also serve national and international patients with second opinions through teleradiology. Our residency program is among the very best in the country, attracting the best and brightest medical students in the United States. All of our residents go on for sub-specialty fellowships, most often at UCSF. Many pursue academic careers. We are now emphasizing research experiences and training during the residency. Our clinical and research fellowships, covering every major sub-specialty, are also outstanding. Different fellowship opportunities exist at each of our four sites, including a Clinical Practicum experience at SFGH geared toward those destined for private practice. We are pleased that fellowships are now managed through the match. Our research efforts are flourishing with additional faculty and funded programs. The department has consistently been among the top institutions in the NIH rankings. Industrial collaborations provide us with unique opportunities to work with prototype equipment. These relationships also create close interactions with industrial scientists who work with our faculty and students while exploring new approaches to medical imaging. We recently opened a new clinical and research facility at China Basin Landing, adjacent to the Mission Bay campus. This facility houses a large new research facility, the Center for Molecular and Functional Imaging, including a 3T MR system, as well as clinical MR, CT and PET/CT. This outstanding facility will support even more growth in our prolific research program and will strengthen our reputation for leadership and vision in diagnostic imaging innovation as we enter this new era of molecular imaging.
