at the University of Virginia Health System (UVA Health) is seeking a fellowship‑trained Breast Imager. Applicants must be competent in all aspects of breast imaging, including screening and diagnostic mammography, breast ultrasound, breast MRI, radioactive seed placement and breast procedures, including core needle biopsy. This is a full‑time opportunity to join one of the premier academic communities in the country.

This position is for an Assistant, Associate or Full Professor, with academic rank dependent on qualifications and experience. The UVA Breast Program is cohesive, mature and collaborative. The Breast Imaging Division consists of seven dedicated breast radiologists working in an integrated center with Breast Surgery, Oncology, and Plastic Surgery. In August 2020, the Breast Program opened a new multi‑disciplinary Center, which includes 3‑D mammography, high‑resolution breast ultrasound, and contrast‑enhanced mammography. The Center also allows state‑of‑the‑art image‑guided intervention using ultrasound, stereotactic/tomosynthesis, and contrast‑enhanced mammography core‑needle sampling. Breast MRI and abbreviated breast MRI are available at multiple sites, and MRI‑guided biopsy is performed at UVA Medical Center. There are three additional screening sites and a mobile van, all with 3‑D mammography. The division has a robust research program with typically 2–4 active clinical trials. Fellows include both traditional instructors (three) and international visiting fellows (one).

We offer a competitive salary and benefits plan, relocation assistance, productivity incentives, a professional allotment and a sign‑on bonus. To learn more about joining the UVA Department of Radiology and Medical Imaging, visit
