Administrative Organization in Diagnostic Radiology Residency Program Leadership

The majority of US DR residency programs used some form of additional DR leadership position. In the majority of cases, this was in the form of an assistant or associate PD. Nearly one-fifth of programs studied had more than one such position. This is a positive model for the depth and breadth of management of US residency programs, serving both as a template for matrixed leadership and as a source of leadership succession planning.
