Interventional radiology (IR) has undergone a paradigm shift, and has become more clinically directed. This is particularly true with the new training programs, which are all required to have outpatient clinics, admitting services, and consult services within their hospitals. Despite these changes in education, however, many jobs still require a significant amount of diagnostic imaging work, and many established groups are reticent to allow the time and resources needed to pursue this clinical model of IR practice. This lack of support can lead to frustration for the early career interventional radiologist. This article describes the experience of one early career interventional radiologist, including some of the challenges and opportunities that have arisen from the recent changes in training.
介入放射学(IR)已经经历了范式转变,并变得更加以临床为导向。新的培训项目尤其如此,所有这些项目都要求在其医院内设有门诊、收治服务和会诊服务。然而,尽管教育方面有这些变化,但许多工作仍然需要大量的诊断成像工作,而且许多老牌团队不愿意为推行这种介入放射学临床实践模式提供所需的时间和资源。这种支持的缺乏可能会让早期职业介入放射科医生感到沮丧。本文描述了一位早期职业介入放射科医生的经历,包括近期培训变化带来的一些挑战和机遇。
