Notes and additional requirements:
Notes and additional requirements: An ACGME internship (PG-I year) is required for entrance into our program in addition to completion of a full diagnostic radiology residency (exception for reverse NM3 pathway applicants as described in the next section). The internship must be accredited clinical training in internal medicine, pediatrics, surgery or surgical specialties, obstetrics and gynecology, neurology, family and community medicine, emergency medicine, or any combination of these. No more than a total of three months may be spent in radiology, radiation oncology, and/or pathology. The diagnostic radiology residency must also be from an ACGME accredited program and must have at least four months of Nuclear Medicine training to qualify for sitting the ABNM board certification exam. Alternatively, if an internship year has been completed (or is being completed) and an ACGME diagnostic radiology residency will commence one year later, the Nuclear Medicine fellowship year may precede the standard radiology residency (this is also known as the reverse NM3 pathway).
