The Interventional Radiology Division offers three positions per year in its ACGME approved fellowship program. The section, which is staffed by four faculty members, performs procedures on about 6000 patients per year. Our Heart and Vascular center features four state-of-the-art Siemens angiographic suites with the latest in CT technology, including a dual-source CT scanner capable of performing high resolution volumetric imaging for vascular imaging and cardiac imaging.

Meet our present and past Fellows

"Great variety, attendings, staff.  Great experience."
- Dr. Michael Lacombe, Fellow 2007-2008

In addition to vascular and drainage procedures, the vascular/interventional section routinely performs biopsies under fluoroscopic, CT or ultrasound guidance. A considerable number of vascular cases are interventional in character, ranging from angioplasty, fibrinolytic therapy, embolization and TIPS.


"Excellent fellowship - perfect preparation for private practice."

- Dr. Jerry Matteo, Fellow 2005-2006

Furthermore, MRI and CT examinations associated with the vascular system, as well as requiring interventional expertise, are performed by members of each section. The fellows are encouraged to participate in the many ongoing clinical trials within the division, as well as animal research.

"This is a unique experience in which you can learn and practice a broad range of procedures."

- Dr. Ricardo de Olivaes Lacerda, Fellow 2006-2007

A tremendous expansion of the services has opened up with the addition of the new Heart and Vascular Center in MUSC's Ashley River Tower.

"Excellent fellowship experience in a great city."

- Dr. Philip Weber, Fellow 2004-2005
