This opportunity is for a Breast Imaging Radiologist at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, ranked the #1 Best Hospital in Dallas-Fort Worth. Led by Dr. Stephen Seiler, the Breast Imaging Division currently includes 13 faculty members, and sponsors a Texas Medical Board-accredited fellowship program in breast imaging.
Divisional duties include interpreting the full range of breast imaging examinations and performing interventional procedures, in addition to providing consultation to referring physicians and patients. The candidate will be expected to be superior in all aspects of breast imaging modalities and capable of teaching mammography, breast MRI, ultrasound, and contemporary biopsy techniques to breast imaging fellows, radiology residents, and medical students through didactic lectures, case presentations, and multidisciplinary conferences.
Specific clinical and research interests can be in any area within the scope of breast imaging. Faculty members in the Breast Imaging Division will be responsible for clinical services at the Moody Breast Health Center, a new Parkland Health System facility with state-of-the-art imaging equipment, including a new breast MRI system. Faculty will also be responsible for clinical services at the UT Southwestern Center for Breast Care, which includes the most advanced equipment and a dedicated MRI unit.
Compelling faculty benefits include an excellent healthcare plan, competitive salary, and retirement benefits. A convenient on-campus transportation system ensures mobility between the various clinic locations across the expansive campus. Nearby daycare is also available with UTSW-affiliated rates.
Faculty members have dedicated academic time with many opportunities to develop research interests in collaboration with our strong basic science group, as well as other clinical and basic science departments throughout the campus. Administrative, biostatistical, and logistical support are provided in addition to robust research coaching and mentorship. Strong collaboration with imaging vendors enriches discovery opportunities. Current projects focus on breast MRI, including abbreviated dynamic protocols and diffusion weighted imaging, contrast-enhanced mammography, microbubble technology, the TMIST trial, mammographic-pathologic correlations, and artificial intelligence.
Ranked in the Top 10 U.S. places to live with the highest pay adjusted to cost of living, the Dallas-Fort Worth area is a richly diverse metropolitan region with affordable housing, a thriving culinary scene, world-renowned arts districts, major professional sports teams, trendy entertainment venues, and unparalleled shopping opportunities. With more than 200 cities, each with its own identity and culture, the region is served by two commercial airports, as well as major highway and mass-transit systems, enabling an average commute time of about 28 minutes. North Texas is also home to 45 colleges and universities, more than 60 hospitals, and 7.1 million residents. Residents will enjoy an unemployment rate that’s below the national average, relatively low crime rates, high-quality elementary and secondary schools, and extensive parks and recreation.
Candidates must have a Doctor of Medicine (MD) or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) degree or foreign equivalent, have completed a minimum of 1 year of fellowship training in breast imaging, and be ABR-certified/eligible. Eligibility for Texas medical licensure and its acquisition prior to the start of employment is required.
