Program Identity & Fit

This is the Integrated Interventional Radiology/Diagnostic Radiology residency at the University of Missouri School of Medicine, an academic, university-affiliated program that offers one integrated IR/DR position per year alongside independent IR and ESIR pathways. Residents train across the full spectrum of diagnostic and interventional radiology, rotating through the ICU, vascular surgery, and neuro-interventional services in addition to noninvasive imaging, and integrated/ESIR residents share nearly all academic, educational, and financial resources with the diagnostic radiology residency. Senior-level residents graduate with a case volume greater than 1,500 IR cases per year, reflecting substantial procedural exposure. The department supports a wide array of research opportunities, including nanomedicine, imaging tracer development, and radiopharmaceutical research, positioning graduates for academic medicine, research, or private practice careers.
