Each resident is expected to present the findings of his or her research project at the ACVR annual scientific meeting during their third year of training. Each resident is also required to give 2 presentations over the course of their training to house officers and faculty on topics relating to diagnostic imaging. Additionally, the residents routinely give two lectures on physics and digital imaging to veterinary students on clinical rotation, and occasional lectures to the veterinary students in the RadVets radiology student club. XI. Evaluation 'Evaluation of residents and protection mechanisms': • • • At the 6 months reviews did your resident(s) successfully complete their residency training or did any of your resident(s) not adequately complete the last 6 months of training? List the current members of the residents' review committee. List the internal mechanisms in place to protect your resident if conflicts arise. All residents successfully completed their semi-annual evaluations. Evaluations are performed twice a year in December and April and are submitted to the Student Services at North Carolina State University College of Veterinary Medicine. Any instance where a resident “does not meet standards” in any of the evaluation criteria the Faculty Committee of House Officer Programs (FCHOP) is notified. Each resident is evaluated by the radiology faculty and has a faculty mentor outside the radiology group. This mentor, as well as the FCHOP committee are possible points of contact for the residents should conflicts arise. Members of current resident review committees: Radiology faculty for all residents Outside mentors: For Mason Savage: Steven Marks For Kristina Simone: Peter Early For Maria Evola: Tracy Gieger For Nicholas Petrovic: Sandra Tou For Jaime Rechy: Matthew Gerard XII. Teaching File: Last Revised: November 25, 2008 North Carolina State University January 27, 2015 What is the nature and scope of the teaching file available to residents? Clinical images from 2002 to present are in a digital format and available through the Radiology Information System (RIS). These cases are indexed by keywords that can be searched in the RIS. Searches in the RIS can be filtered using the report assessments, descriptions, patient signalment and exam type parameters. These cases are directly linked to the PACS system for web-based image retrieval. A limited film archive of interesting cases and artifacts is also available on-site. How is it maintained/updated? The RIS teaching file is updated by faculty and residents by adding keywords during report generation and finalization. The artifact files are maintained by the residents. The film archive is maintained by technologists. XIII. Conferences: On average how many Known Case Conferences are conducted annually? 49 XIV. Literature resources: What is the geographic relationship between the nearest medical library and the training program? The William Rand Kenan, Jr. Library of Veterinary Medicine is on-site. XV.
