Elective opportunities are available at the <b>Peter Lougheed Centre<\/b>, where specialist vascular and MSK imaging\/procedures are performed, the <b>Rockyview General Hospital<\/b>, home to the Southern Alberta Institute of Urology, and <b>Foothills Medical Centre<\/b>.\n<br><br>\nIf you have a specific interest in a Radiology residency, we recommend an elective at the Foothills Medical Centre. This is one of Canada\u2019s largest hospitals and the primary location in which resident education is based. An elective here provides experience in the core modalities of Emergency Radiology, Body CT, Neuro CT, Chest, GI\/GU\/Fluoroscopy, Ultrasound, and Mammography. <br>In addition, there are opportunities to experience Interventional Radiology (IR), Nuclear Medicine and Body\/Neuro MRI. <br><br>Ultimately, regardless of the site, the elective promises to familiarize students with diagnostic imaging via exposure to the modalities of CT, MRI, ultrasound, plain film, and IR.\n<br><br>\nTo apply:\n<br><br>\nUofC medical students: <br>email <br>crystal.ryszewski@albertahealthservices.ca directly with the requested dates for your elective\n<br><br>\nNon UofC medical students: apply though the AFMC student portal\n\n<br><br>Of note, applications for an elective can occur no earlier than 28 weeks and no later than 8 weeks prior to the requested date. Electives cannot be booked in July and August and during the two weeks over the Christmas and New Year\u2019s break.\n<br><br>\nIf you have additional questions, please feel free to contact the Radiology Lead Residents.\n\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shadowing Electives Curious about Radiology?
