Visiting professors and Saint Lukes Scarpellino Radiology Education Center enhance training Kunin leads efforts for first, only radiology research fellowship in Kansas City, Mo.

DIRECTORS MESSAGE

Throughout the past decade, the field of radiology has become one of the most quickly expanding, technologically demanding medical specialties in the health care industry. These external forces have also spurred many radiology residency programs across the country to change in order to rise to new levels of medical education. The UMKC School of Medicine Radiology Residency program has certainly capitalized on opportunities surrounding these changes in recent years. Thats evident by looking at our current residents and graduates accomplishments. Were graduating radiologists who are prepared to practice at the highest levels of radiology subspecialization. Our graduates are matriculating in fellowships at the most renowned teaching and patient care institutions in the country. Johns Hopkins, Harvard, Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology, and M.D. Anderson are just a few of the distinguished medical centers that have accepted our graduates in recent years. These institutions welcome graduates from the UMKC School of Medicine Radiology Residency because they know that resident physicians who come from our program have trained with some of the best radiology subspecialists in their field. For example, two members of our faculty, Melissa Rosado de Christenson, M.D., and Jorge Vidal, M.D., were recently honored by the Radiological Society of North America for their work as educators in the field.

Our graduates are highly qualified having been exposed to the most advanced technology and imaging techniques, such as vascular and neurointerventional, 3T magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, MR spectroscopy, perfusion, tractography, diffusion tensor imaging, CT and MR enterography, tumor ablation, sports medicine imaging, fetal and cardiac imaging. And, the experience they gain from working with nationally recognized subspecialists and varied patient populations through rotations at four different hospital affiliates makes our graduates attractive to any radiology practice. In 2009, the UMKC School of Medicine Radiology Residency program was cited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education for its excellence, honored as the only program during a six-month accreditation period to receive a full five-year accreditation with commendation. Today, our program has a reputation for excellence. We dont take that reputation lightly. It is our mission to continue to build on that, making our residency one of the best in the nation.

Charlene Lava, M.D., senior resident and first thoracic radiology research fellow, and Jeffrey Kunin, M.D., clinical associate professor of radiology and chief of the radiology department at Saint Lukes Hospital, are currently working on a study to aid in the detection of lung cancer.

Kunin leads efforts for first, only radiology research fellowship in Kansas City
Named as Advocate of the Year by the graduating residents this past year, Jeffrey Kunin, M.D., clinical associate professor of radiology at the UMKC School of Medicine, continues to focus on keeping the department on the cutting edge of the industry. It has been my mission to improve the radiology residency and part of that was teaching. I built the clinical aspect, improved upon the education, and then recruited staff who would have interest in doing research, said Kunin, chief of the radiology department at Saint Lukes Hospital. Kunin graduated from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston in 1987 and completed residency training at the Medical College of Virginia in Richmond, Va., and at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Mich., and a fellowship at the University of Michigan Health System in Ann Arbor. He is board certified by the American Board of Radiology with a subspecialty interest in thoracic imaging. Before joining Saint Lukes, Kunin was in private practice for nearly 15 years and said he appreciates the teaching dynamic of his current position. It makes work more challenging to teach, stay up with scientific literature and give lectures,Kunin said. The residents are very enjoyable. I care about them, want to help them find a job or fellowship and get through the professional part of their life. Through his work, the radiology department will launch its first research fellowship in 2013 the new thoracic radiology research fellowship. Charlene Lava, M.D., senior radiology resident, will be the first fellow in this program. Kunin secured funding for the research fellow, a part-time study coordinator and the research study from the Kansas Bioscience Authority in conjunction with Oncimmune, Ltd., and the Saint Lukes Foundation. Lava is working on the study with Kunin, who is the principal investigator. The study focuses on the evaluation of a blood test and correlating it with imaging studies in the evaluation of potential lung cancer. About 500 patients are planning to enroll in the study, which started in September and will last for a year. There is a blood test for assisting in the detection of lung cancer, but no one has ever correlated that with the chest CT scans that we read to look for it, Kunin said. So, we will be merging the two: looking at the results from the blood test and at the results of the CT scan to see if we can combine them to improve upon current methods to detect lung cancer. As a senior resident, Lava has worked with Kunin for the past four years and said she looks forward to working with him as the thoracic research fellow before she begins a fellowship in pediatric radiology at Childrens Mercy Hospital. Hes a really good mentor, she said. Hell give you feedback and tell you what you need to do. If you get in a rut, he helps you find ways to get through it. He also recognizes when someone does a good job and will tell you that. As a resident, its nice to have some positive reinforcement. Another aspect of Kunins teaching that Lava said she appreciates is his ability to find resources and solutions to problems. It is this problem-solving aspect of medicine and radiology, in particular, that attracted Kunin to the profession. I like the search to solve, he said. Its kind of like a mystery novel. In diagnostic radiology as compared to therapeutic radiology, were determining whether things are normal or abnormal. And if theyre abnormal, we have to figure out what that is. I like putting all the pieces together to solve whats wrong with the patient. DEPARTMENT OF RADIOLOGY 1

UMKC RADIOLOGY RESIDENTS AT THE

Myka Veigel, D.O., is a fifth-year resident in the UMKC School of Medicine Radiology Residency program. He already has plans to continue his training with a musculoskeletal fellowship at the University of Iowa after he completes his residency in 2013. The decision to add fellowship training is becoming the norm for radiologists graduating from residency programs. In the past four years, all 21 of the residents who have graduated from UMKCs radiology program have entered a fellowship. Not just any fellowship program, but some of the top programs in the nation, said Lisa Lowe, M.D., F.A.A.P., residency director, professor and chair of radiology. The thing that stands out about our graduates is that they are seeking out and securing fellowships with the best mentors and teachers at some of the best institutions in the country. This is no accident, Lowe said. Radiology residents in the past few years have landed fellowship positions at places such as Johns Hopkins, Harvard, Mallinkrodt Institute of Radiology, Northwestern University, and the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, as well as the three radiology fellowship programs at UMKC. Training at UMKC with some of the leading radiology educators and subspecialists in 2 UMKC SCHOOL OF MEDICINE the country creates an atmosphere that encourages residents to aim high as they advance to the next level, Lowe said. I believe the environment of excellence and encouragement for UMKC radiology residents to reach their full potential is motivating them to not just complete a fellowship, but to set their sights on completing the nations top fellowships, thus allowing them to practice at the highest level of subspecialization possible, Lowe said. David Saldana, M.D., completed a fellowship in thoracic radiology and breast imaging at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center after graduating from the residency program in 2011. He now works in a private practice in Corpus Christi, Texas, and credits UMKC radiology faculty members Azfal Riaz, M.D., a clinical assistant professor who specializes in breast imaging, and Melissa L. Rosado de Christenson, M.D., F.A.C.R., professor of radiology, specializing in thoracic radiology, with determining his career path. They had huge influences on me and my career, Saldana said. My residency program gave me the base knowledge that I use every day and accomplished the goal of preparing me to perform at the highest level. Veigel echoes the point. He said the quality of radiologists and attending physicians who

residents work with on a daily basis goes hand-in-hand with the high expectations the program has for its residents. Throughout our residency, we have subspecialty-trained radiologists in all facets of radiology and really get a good generalized background and preparation for when we leave here, he said. We have very good musculoskeletal training at UMKC. A new musculoskeletal radiologist who arrived just more than a year ago, Dr. Jessica Sanchez, from George Washington University, has added a lot to our resident education. In early 2009, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education examined the UMKC radiology residency program and came back with a glowing report, citing it as one of the best it had reviewed. For its efforts, not only did the program receive the ACGMEs longest cycle length of five years, it was accredited with commendation a rare honor given to only one program UMKC reviewed during that six-month period. Part of the reason is that residents not only train with some of the top radiologists in their fields, but their experiences are also shaped by the wide range of training environments at four of Kansas Citys leading hospitals Truman Medical Center, Saint Lukes Hospital

TOP OF THEIR GAME

of Kansas City, Childrens Mercy Hospitals and Clinics, and the Kansas City Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center each with their own individual niche. Id say one of the strengths of our residency program is the various hospitals where we get to train, Veigel said. We get a variety of patients at those hospitals and a variety of attendings with different backgrounds and strengths that they share and teach us. When Veigel prepared to begin residency, he had plenty of options in front of him as he interviewed for a radiology residency position. At the top of his list stood the program at UMKC. One major reason, and another strength of the program, he said, was its curriculum that integrates the traditional one-year clinical internship throughout the full five-year residency experience. That was one of the reasons I ranked this program as number one. I knew that I could start doing radiology my first year, Veigel said. In most programs, you have to do a one-year internship and a couple of months of radiology that first year. Here, I was able to do seven months of radiology during the first year. I got more training, and its given me a unique experience.

Two radiology faculty receive Honored Educator Award

Two radiology department faculty received 2012 Honored Educator Awards from the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA). Melissa Rosado de Christenson, M.D., F.A.C.R., and Jorge Vidal, M.D., were among 44 selected nationwide from more than 60,000 physicians who participate in RNSA. I am truly humbled to be recognized by the RNSA in this manner and especially honored to be included with other awardees who represent some of the best educators in radiology. said Rosado de Christenson. I am also pleased to be recognized with one of the graduates of our program, Dr. Jorge Vidal. In 2008, she came to Kansas City to serve as a professor of radiology and chief of thoracic imaging at Saint Lukes Hospital. According to Rosado de Christenson, the ability to serve as an educator and practitioner was one of the reasons she came to Saint Lukes. I had the privilege of being trained by outstanding educators and leaders in radiology. said Rosado de Christenson. They nurtured in me a love of learning and the desire to become the best radiologist I could be. When I see the impact that those individuals had on my professional life, I feel an obligation to try to do the same for my trainees. It is an understatement to say that Rosado de Christenson serves as an outstanding example of a physician educator, according to Lisa Lowe, M.D. F.A.A.P., chair of radiology for the UMKC School of Medicine. Rosado de Christenson is in charge of thoracic imaging education for UMKC residents. She also works with medical school students during their radiology rotations. In 2009, Rosado de Christenson was instrumental in starting a one-year thoracic imaging fellowship at Saint Lukes Hospital. An excellent teacher and mentor, Rosado de Christenson is recognized as a national authority on thoracic imaging. She has coauthored one book and is serving as lead author for her first book, Diagnostic Imaging Chest. She holds numerous leadership roles in national and international radiology organizations such as the Society of Thoracic Radiology, and the American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS), the American Board of Radiology and the American College of 4 UMKC SCHOOL OF MEDICINE

Radiology to name a few. In 1971, she began her educational journey when she left her home in Puerto Rico and accepted a scholarship to attend Johns Hopkins University. She completed her medical degree at the newly created Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences. She went directly from the classroom to active military duty with the U.S. Air Force, where she served for the next 25

radiology department. UMKCs radiology residency is a great program. I found the ability to work with private and public systems very beneficial, and working with Childrens Mercy was magnificent, Vidal said. He has taught for the past six years with the School of Medicine as a clinical assistant professor. He returns once a year to lecture on musculoskeletal radiology and performs

years. Vidal shares several things in common with Rosado de Christenson. He is also from Puerto Rico, and a UMKC faculty member. Vidal, who completed his musculoskeletal fellowship at the Amred Forces Institute of Pathology (now the American Institute for Radiologic Pathology), now lives and practices in Puerto Rico. He first learned about the School of Medicine when he applied and was accepted for his residency in the UMKC online conferences as well. He serves as an assistant professor at the University of Puerto Rico School of Medicine. Vidal has presented at national conferences and won several awards for his work. This is a great honor to be among the 44 honored from the RNSA. This is a group of over 60,000. I am honored to be recognized among a group that comprises many of the major authorities in radiology, he concluded.

Jared Halpin, M.D., knew he wanted to be a radiologist before he began medical school. While working with radiologists in a job-shadowing class in high school, he said he could see the excitement and interest they had in their job. And, it was with this enthusiasm that Halpin enrolled in as many radiology electives as possible during his time in the UMKC School of Medicines six-year BA/ MD program. After graduation in 2010, he was accepted into the UMKC radiology residency program. Lisa Lowe, M.D., F.A.A.P., program director for the radiology residency, nominated Halpin for the Introduction to Academic Radiology program sponsored by the RSNA/AUR and ARRS. Each residency can nominate one resident to apply to the program. Halpin was chosen to attend the seminar at the 2012 RSNA on Nov 25-29 in Chicago. I was honored to be chosen and that I was someone Dr. Lowe thought would be a good applicant, Halpin said. Im looking forward to the opportunity Ill have there to learn more about pursuing a career in academic radiology and to meet other residents and faculty across the country. Each resident chosen to attend the seminar receives a grant to cover registration

to the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) and travel expenses. The program at the RSNA meeting gathers PGY3 radiology residents and academic radiologists who discuss why they chose an academic career path and its value to the radiology community, Halpin said. Melissa Rosado de Christenson, M.D., F.A.C.R., professor of radiology and chief of thoracic imaging at Saint Lukes hospital, will give a presentation during the meeting that focuses on developing a successful mentor relationship. The radiology staff at UMKC has shown Halpin how satisfying and rewarding radiology can be, he said. Each case is interesting. This job is intellectually stimulating throughout the day, Halpin said. I could tell, when working with the staff and residents at Saint Lukes as a student, that the radiologists there really found their work interesting and were very satisfied with their jobs. Halpin said he is looking forward to learning more about the profession that he finds so rewarding. In radiology, we get to see a variety of pathologies, patients, and patient settings, he said. Imaging techniques advance and grow, and we continue to learn more every day.
