Medical Student Education

The Henry I. Goldberg Center for Advanced Imaging Education continues to expand its role in medical student education at the University of California at San Francisco (UCSF). Radiology is integrated into all of the components of the core medical school curriculum that spans the first two years of medical school. 

In conjunction with gross anatomy, radiologic anatomy and the applications of radiology are taught during the Prologue, Cardiopulmonary, Renal, Cancer: Bench to Bedside, Brain, Mind & Behavior, Metabolism & Nutrition and Life Cycle courses. The center coordinates electives in radiology on the Parnassus campus, Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC), and ZSFG.

"The teaching reflects the excellent reputation this department and institution has worldwide. Having attended several rotations of this type in several institutions, I must say this has been my best and most learned one yet."

David Mobley, MS4

The facility includes a large multimedia conference room used for medical student, resident and postgraduate courses; a dedicated student classroom; as well as a computer resource area with a PACS workstation.

The Center also provides career and curricular advising and mentoring for many students.

The Department of Radiology is committed to the principles of advancing and sustaining opportunity for all, as rooted in our UCSF Pride Values. Find out more about on our Opportunity and Outreach page.
