Radiology (Diagnostic)
About the Program

Physicians in Monmouth Medical Center's four-year diagnostic radiology
residency program become skilled practitioners in the latest imaging techniques
and technology, preparing them to secure competitive post-residency fellowships
or enter private practice.
For more than 40 years, Monmouth has been training radiologists to further
the field. Through a well-established post-graduate educational and research
institution, residents can expect to reach their goals.
About the Faculty
Residents are instructed by a medical team that consists of 11 board-certified
radiologists, two of whom are double-board certified in nuclear medicine,
and a board-certified medical imaging physicist. All faculty members are
fellowship trained from leading university programs.
