Open Rank Tenure or Clinical Track in Veterinary Diagnostic Imaging

25%-100% appointment (12-month basis)

Are you interested in a collaborative in-hospital work experience which
also allows you to maximize your earning potential with
teleradiology/consulting opportunities?

The University of Illinois Veterinary Teaching Hospital (VTH) is seeking
an additional clinical radiologist to join our team as a faculty member.
This position is a flexible, benefits eligible appointment, ranging from
25-100%. This flexibility allows ample free time for
teleradiology/consulting opportunities. In this position, primary duties
include case interpretation/consultation on the clinic floor and
teaching of the departments clinical year students and house officers.
Didactic teaching and research are not required but can be pursued, if
interested. After hours emergency call is not required. If a tenure
track position is deemed appropriate, there will be expectations and
opportunities for scholarship.

The VTH boasts top of the line equipment, including a Siemens Somatom
128 slice CT, 3T Siemens Magnetom Skyra MRI, and a Canon Aplio 700
ultrasound machine. Our reading room is equipped with three diagnostic
workstations, each with two diagnostic monitors and two non-diagnostic
monitors. Our current team includes a board-certified radiologist,
diagnostic imaging intern, five imaging technicians, and two imaging
coordinators. Ultrasound exams are performed by our excellent imaging
technicians and can be interpreted in-house or sent out for
interpretation.

Our moderate caseload is supported by a teleradiology service which
assists with case overflow. This allows for a pressure-free case reading
and consulting environment. This position will not include large animal
image interpretation unless the candidate has a specific interest. The
diagnostic imaging department supports robust neurology, internal
medicine, soft tissue/orthopedic surgery, radiation/medical oncology,
and ECC services. We also consult on cases for our dermatology, exotics
medicine, and dentistry services.

Our faculty and staff provide broad public engagement through operation
of the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, a regional primary and referral
care center for the delivery of state-of-the art veterinary medical
services. The Department of Veterinary Clinical Medicine features modern
