Popis: The training paradigm of the interventional radiologist has quickly evolved with the approval of the integrated interventional radiology (IR) residency by the American Board of Medical Specialties and the Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education. Prior to appointment in an integrated IR program, a resident must complete a preliminary clinical year, which may be surgical, medical, or transitional. The unique procedural- and clinical-based skillset required of the IR resident is best aligned with a surgical preliminary year. The following is a review of the steps to successful creation of a surgical preliminary year based on a single institution's experience.
