The Clinical Radiology Training Program is designed as a five-year training program and structured in three major phases. This sequencing is to ensure trainees develop foundation knowledge and skills during Phase 1 and then have the opportunity to further develop their abilities and breadth of practice during Phase 2 of the training program. In Phase 3, trainees consolidate their skills and focus on areas of interest.
Training is undertaken through accredited network training sites. Trainees rotate to several training sites throughout their training.

A radiologist is a specialist medical doctor who has had postgraduate training in performing and interpreting diagnostic imaging tests, and carrying out interventional procedures or treatments, using X-ray, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging equipment.
Radiologists assist other doctors and specialists in treating their patients. They do this by making a diagnosis, and by providing treatment using medical imaging.
Radiologists have the medical knowledge to understand and explain a patient’s medical problem or symptom through images of the inside of the body.
