RESIDENCIES & FELLOWSHIP PROGRAMS

Emergency Ultrasound Fellowship

The Emergency Ultrasound Fellowship at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai is a one-year program that trains fellows in advanced emergency ultrasonography across a variety of departments. During the fellowship, trainees hold part-time attending clinical duties where they independently supervise residents in the Emergency Department. Accredited by the Emergency Ultrasound Fellowship Accreditation Council (EUFAC), the fellowship provides cutting-edge clinical experiences in the vascular laboratory, transesophageal echocardiography, cardiology, radiology, general abdominal sonography, and anesthesia. Fellows work with a diverse patient population across three clinical sites – The Mount Sinai Hospital, Mount Sinai Queens, and Elmhurst Hospital Center – and spend significant time training with our internationally recognized faculty and department sonographer.

Our curriculum is based on guidelines from the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) and Society for Clinical Ultrasound Fellowships (SCUF) and includes all major organ systems and procedures. We also have courses dedicated to teaching, lecture preparation, public speaking, authorship, and how to run an ultrasound conference. Our faculty engage in ample research activities and collaborations with other departments and industry leaders, allowing our fellows to gain greater depth in the field.

How to Apply

We accept 1-2 fellows each year. Applicants should have completed a three- or four-year Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education-accredited residency in Emergency Medicine and should be American Board of Emergency Medicine-certified or eligible by the beginning of the fellowship.

Applications for the fellowship should be submitted through the Society for Clinical Ultrasound Fellowships. We fill positions through the National Residency Matching Program.
