Imaging Technologies
The clinical facilities at the University of Chicago feature advanced imaging technologies that aid inthe diagnosis and management of gastrointestinal disorders. These technologies include state-of-the-art endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), and positron emission tomography (PET). Students have the opportunity to learn how to interpret and utilize these imaging modalities effectively in the diagnosis and treatment planning process.
Pathology Labs
Pathology labs play a crucial role in the diagnosis and understanding of gastrointestinal diseases. The GI program’s clinical facilities are equipped with modern pathology labs, where students can learn how to analyze tissue samples and interpret histopathological findings. This hands-on experience enables students to gain a deeper understanding of the underlying pathology of gastrointestinal disorders.
Collaborative Spaces
The clinical facilities at the University of Chicago are designed to promote collaboration and interprofessional teamwork. Students have access to dedicated collaborative spaces where they can work together on patient cases, research projects, and other academic endeavors. These spaces foster a sense of community and encourage the exchange of ideas among students and faculty members.
Elective Rotations: Tailoring the Learning Experience
The University of Chicago’s GI program offers a range of elective rotations that allow students to tailor their learning experience based on their specific interests and career goals. These rotations provide in-depth exposure to specialized areas of gastroenterology and unique patient populations.
