What is an academic interventional radiologist?

Academic Interventional Radiologists are medical doctors who specialize in minimally invasive, image-guided procedures to diagnose and treat various conditions. In addition to providing patient care, they work in academic settings such as universities or teaching hospitals, where they also engage in research and teach medical students, residents, or fellows. Their work often involves advancing the field through innovation, clinical trials, and scholarly publications. They play a key role in training the next generation of radiologists and improving patient outcomes through evidence-based practices.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an academic interventional radiologist?

To thrive as an Academic Interventional Radiologist, you need an MD or DO degree, board certification in radiology, fellowship training in interventional radiology, and a strong background in image-guided procedures. Proficiency with advanced imaging technologies (such as fluoroscopy, CT, and ultrasound), PACS systems, and familiarity with research and teaching tools are typically required. Excellent communication, teamwork, leadership, and teaching abilities are crucial soft skills that distinguish successful professionals in this role. These skills and qualifications ensure effective patient care, innovation in procedures, and meaningful contributions to academic research and education.

What are some common challenges faced by academic interventional radiologists and how can new hires prepare for them?

Academic Interventional Radiologists often balance clinical duties with teaching and research responsibilities, which can make time management a significant challenge. New hires should be prepared to juggle a dynamic schedule that includes performing procedures, mentoring trainees, and contributing to academic publications or research projects. Building strong organizational skills and collaborating effectively with multidisciplinary teams can help manage these demands. Additionally, staying updated with the latest technological advancements and clinical guidelines is crucial in this rapidly evolving field.

Job description

 Pediatric Interventional Radiologist – CHOC Children’s Hospital

Location: Orange County, California

Due to continued growth in clinical volume, expansion of our multidisciplinary programs, and a deep institutional commitment to faculty well-being and sustainability, the Section of Pediatric Interventional Radiology at CHOC Children’s Hospital is recruiting a full-time Pediatric Interventional Radiologist.

About the Practice

Our team performs over 3,000 image-guided pediatric interventions annually, with year-over-year growth exceeding 20%. We are the only dedicated pediatric IR program in Orange County and serve as a critical hub for patients across the region.

CHOC is unique in that Interventional Radiology is an independent department—purpose-built and equipped with dedicated capital investment, not repurposed from other service lines. The department was developed specifically for pediatric IR and opened in 2025 with entirely new infrastructure and technology. This institutional design reflects CHOC’s deep commitment to the long-term success and autonomy of the IR service line, enabling strategic growth, programmatic development, and physician well-being.

The practice is now anchored by a new, purpose-designed IR department, located within the perioperative space, immediately adjacent to pre-op and post-op care areas. Pediatric anesthesiology is always available, ensuring seamless coordination and safety for both routine and complex cases.

Our facilities include:

  • Biplane and single-plane Philips Azurion suites with fully equipped, dedicated ultrasound units in each room.
  • Embedded reading rooms and back-office support for integrated longitudinal care.
  • Dedicated clinic space and staff provided in a new state-of-the-art on campus outpatient tower, ensuring a seamless patient and family experience from consult to intervention and follow-up.

We are supported by a multidisciplinary team that includes:

  • IR-dedicated APPs
  • Pediatric-trained anesthesiologists
  • A collaborative network of referring providers across CHOC's Centers of Excellence (e.g., Cancer, Neurosciences, and Heart Institutes)

Procedural Scope

We perform the full spectrum of pediatric interventional procedures, including:

  • Vascular access
  • Enteral and biliary interventions
  • Vascular malformation therapies
  • Embolization and angiography
  • DVT/PE thrombolysis
  • Craniofacial endovascular procedures
  • Image-guided musculoskeletal interventions

CHOC also supports a strong multidisciplinary Vascular Anomalies Center, where IR plays a foundational role in collaboration with hematology, plastics, dermatology, ENT, and genetics.

Academic & Institutional Environment

CHOC maintains strong academic affiliations with UC Irvine and supports teaching of residents, fellows, and medical students. Opportunities for research, innovation, and institutional leadership are abundant and encouraged. The IR section plays an active role in hospital-wide initiatives to improve value, patient experience, and faculty engagement. 

What We Offer

  • A high-performing, mission-driven environment with strong IR leadership
  • Competitive compensation with productivity and growth incentives
  • Protected administrative and academic time
  • World-class location in the heart of Orange County, California, offering unmatched quality of life, schools, and recreation
