Residency Program

The section of radiology also sponsors a residency program accredited by the American College of Veterinary Radiology. Succesful completion of the residency program qualifies the resident for examination for Diplomate status by the ACVR. This is a 3 year program with goal of proficiency in diagnostic radiology, ultrasound and computed tomography in small and large animals along with instruction in nuclear medicine, magnetic resonance imaging, and radiation therapy. In addition to the clinical residency training the resident will also enroll in graduate school and pursue a Masters of Science degree in Biomedical Sciences.  Five Diplomates of the ACVR lead the program and, this along with the multiple imaging modalities available on site, have lead to a program which to date every resident that has finished the program has become a Diplomate of the ACVR. Several Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine graduates have completed residencies or are currently in residency programs. For more additional information on the residency program please visit the ACVR website (www.acvr.org).
