Curriculum Overview

The MPC imaging physics residency program includes 9 clinical rotations designed to prepare each resident for the ABR board certification exams as well as a successful career in diagnostic medical physics. The residents at MPC will be provided with specific expectations and requirements for each clinical rotation during orientation. The clinical rotations include:

  • Orientation
  • Radiography
  • Fluoroscopy (interventional and angiography)
  • Mammography (FFDM, Tomosynthesis, SBB)
  • Computed Tomography
  • Magnetic Resonance Imaging
  • Ultrasound
  • Informatics
  • Nuclear Medicine

The MPC residency curriculum also provides training opportunities on a variety of special imaging equipment including (but not limited to) mini CT, mini C-arm, 1.0T open bore MRI, and stereotactic mammography systems.

Throughout each rotation residents will participate in equipment performance evaluations, radiation shielding designs, patient and fetal dose calculations, and institutional radiation safety/protocol committee meetings. Residents will also have opportunities for self-directed learning and will be expected to give quarterly journal club presentations. Additionally, residents will have the opportunity to attend some continuing education / professional society meetings.

We have found the services of MPC vital in meeting our accreditation and regulatory obligations for annual and acceptance testing for all our imaging equipment. MPC has demonstrated to be a cost effective service of providing qualified medical physicists for all our nuclear medicine and diagnostic imaging machine needs for over the past ten years.
