Radiology group launches high school pipeline program to boost IR career awareness

A radiology group has launched a high school outreach program combining in-person observational rotations with virtual sessions to expose students to the full interventional radiology patient care cycle, from consultation to follow-up.

• Program is a career-pipeline initiative targeting high school students, pairing hands-on observational rotations with virtual learning to demystify IR as a specialty.
• Students will experience the complete patient care arc — consultation, procedure, and follow-up — an exposure level uncommon in pre-college medical outreach.
• No outcome data yet; this is a program launch announcement, not a study with measurable recruitment or diversity metrics reported.
