MD Radio Diagnosis

Three-year postgraduate residency producing clinically competent radiologists capable of independently performing and interpreting all major imaging modalities. Training integrates radiological science, patient safety, technological proficiency, and supervised clinical exposure.

The program addresses Nepal’s shortage of radiologists by delivering a structured residency emphasizing clinical radiology, imaging physics, procedural skills, and diagnostic reasoning. Residents progress from foundational anatomy–technique correlation to advanced modality interpretation across CT, MRI, ultrasound, fluoroscopy, angiography, and nuclear medicine. Rotations cover general radiology, neuroradiology, pediatric imaging, OBGYN imaging, MSK, and interventional units. Academic obligations include conferences, case discussions, supervised reporting, and presentations. Successful completion prepares graduates for independent practice and leadership roles.
