Abstract

The 1984 survey of training programs in Therapeutic Radiology in the United States revealed little change in the number of training programs and the number of residency positions offered. However, there has been a striking increase in the number of residents in training since the survey of 1982. The numbers of residents training in the PG-II and PG-III years are more than 50% greater than any previous survey. The proportion of foreign medical graduates is smaller than reported in 1982, but the proportion of women in residency is unchanged.
