title: Goals and objectives for an integrated, graduated curriculum in abdominal radiology.
abstract: The Residency Review Committee of the American Council of Graduate Medical Education has designated abdominal radiology as one of the subspecialty areas required for radiology residency training. Because it spans both gastrointestinal and genitourinary organ systems and multiple modalities, a graduated, integrated abdominal radiology curriculum, which is based on the General Competencies, was developed.
