North Carolina State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine (CVM) is a dynamic community dedicated to developing veterinarians and veterinary scientists through advancing animal and human health from cellular through ecosystem levels. With the graduation of its first class in 1985, the CVM is one of the younger veterinary programs in the country. Despite its relative youth, the College has gained international recognition on the strength of its teaching, research, engagement, and patient care efforts and is ranked 3rd among the nation’s 28 colleges of veterinary medicine in the most recent U.S. News & World Report survey. Located on 180 acres near downtown Raleigh, the College encompasses 20 buildings on the main Centennial Biomedical Campus. In addition to the four-year Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree, the College offers Masters and Doctoral degrees. Faculty and students work across disciplines, employing cutting edge technologies in both basic and applied research in human and veterinary medicine.

The mission of the Department of Molecular Biomedical Sciences: We are dedicated to training doctors of veterinary medicine, graduate students, and postdoctoral fellows interested in research-based careers focused on discovering new information about animal and human health and well-being. The Radiology department is excited about the prospects of furthering the development of imaging at NCSU.

Diagnostic imaging in the NC State Veterinary Hospital is extremely well equipped with six Canon digital radiographic systems (four small animal, two equine), a digital RF room, a cath lab, two Canon Aplio i700 and one Canon Aplio i500 ultrasound machines for small animal imaging, a Mylab 70 XVG for equine orthopedics and assorted portable equine ultrasound machines, an MiE equine/small animal nuclear medicine suite, 64 slice small animal Siemens CT machines and mobile Samsung BodyTom for equine imaging (including standing scan ability), and a 3.0T Siemens Skyra MRI suite configured for small animal and equine MR imaging. A fully integrated web based Radiology Information System (Empiric Systems/Fuji) and PACS (Merge) allows for easy report generation and image distribution throughout the College. The RIS and PACS are readily accessible offsite and via iOS devices. An online platform (Ambra) is used for teleconsultation from veterinarians in the state of North Carolina.

There are five other full-time radiologists, nine radiology residents, and eight technologists and support staff. The radiology department is a congenial team-oriented group which is excited about the prospects of furthering the development of imaging at NCSU in collaboration with the talents and ideas of a new faculty member. The NC State Veterinary Hospital is a wonderful workplace with enthusiastic students, technologists and other faculty specialists who work together to provide excellent veterinary medical care and to advance the knowledge base.

The college is committed to practicing inclusivity, making community a priority, and promoting innovation. We embrace effective leadership, and we champion personal and professional growth.

The new faculty member will be expected to actively participate in the veterinary and graduate teaching programs, provide clinical radiology services in the NC State Veterinary Hospital, contribute to the knowledge base of the professional discipline through collaborative research with other clinical specialists or basic scientists, and provide teleradiology consultations to referring veterinarians and others.

The Radiology faculty is committed to making this position as flexible as possible to fit the desires of the successful applicant. Clinical service can be tailored to suit the interests of the faculty member. Excellent opportunities exist for independent or collaborative investigational activities and for innovations in teaching. Strong ties exist between the College and area medical schools. The Comparative Medicine Institute (CMI) located on the NC State Veterinary Hospital campus provides excellent opportunities for participation in collaborative and translational research projects.
