About The Position

The Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU) Department of Diagnostic Radiology is seeking a well-trained, subspecialized radiologist to join our Body Imaging team dedicated to outstanding patient care, education, and academic excellence. The OHSU Department of Diagnostic Radiology is a medium-sized academic department consisting of 54 radiologists, 6 physicist faculty and 37 residents and fellows. It offers a highly competitive, transparent salary and benefits package linked to national benchmarks and provides generous protected time for academic pursuits. Work is structured in a shift model with a base of 170 shifts/yr for 1.0 FTE. There are abundant opportunities and an excellent departmental track record for academic promotion within the institution, with generous protected time for leadership positions. Supportive administrative, IT, technologist and research teams are available. The OHSU Body Imaging Section is steadily growing with 15 Body Radiologists and 2 dedicated Body PAs. The section recruits and trains 1-3 fellows per year and interprets the full spectrum of abdominal imaging, including cutting-edge exams such as CEUS, US and MR liver quantification, PET/MRI, and DECT. Faculty work 1-2 remote shifts per week. Call is evenly split between the group, is infrequent, flexible, and only body imaging is interpreted on call, most of which is performed remotely. Overnight nighthawk coverage is used to reduce middle-of-the-night pages. Virtual reading room assistants are utilized to help with workflow and triage of phone calls. Strong collegial relationships exist with referring surgical and medical subspecialists, and the OHSU radiologist team is highly valued for its quality and expertise. The role involves performing a range of image-guided biopsy procedures and fluid drainages, and running one of the largest MRI-guided in-bore prostate biopsy programs in the US. OHSU, as the only academic medical center in Oregon, provides a full spectrum of care to a large and diverse population. Its main campus and radiology facilities are situated in Portland, OR. OHSU has the state's only active transplant program, is one of only two Level 1 trauma programs, and contains the Knight Cancer Institute, the only NCI-designated Cancer Center in Oregon. The department is equipped with state-of-the-art imaging equipment and serves patients with a wide mix of complexity and pathology. OHSU is the only medical school in the state, offering ample opportunities to teach various levels of learner groups.
