Double Fellowships in Radiology: A Survey of 2014 Graduating Fellows

Purpose: Radiology fellowship training has evolved from being an uncommon option to being a near requisite for post-training employment in the United States. A subset of fellows elect to pursue second fellowships with potentially substantial implications on both the private sector and academic radiology workforce. The purpose of this study was to assess the proportion of current radiology fellows pursuing multiple years of post-residency fellowship training. Materials and Methods: After obtaining IRB approval, an anonymous web-based survey was emailed to 1,269 radiology fellows listed as “completing fellowship” in the American College of Radiology database in June 2014.
