The clinical shadowing experience is an opportunity to explore the profession. To gain a better understanding of the field of radiologic science, observation in the clinical setting is advised before applying to the program.<\/p>\n

Prospective students are free to set up their own shadowing experience at any facility. For shadowing opportunities at UNC Main Hospital and Duke University Hospital, please contact Amy Dela Cruz<\/a> for sonography and Susan MacNeela<\/a> for diagnostic interventional radiology.<\/p>\n

Considering the sensitive nature of patient privacy, you will be required to complete online confidentiality training (HIPAA) and provide documentation of immunizations in preparation for your shadowing experience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
