Fellowships, which consist of training in predominantly breast imaging and in gynecologic and obstetric sonography, have steadily increased in number since 1992. There are currently 10 such fellowships, and the majority of these are called "women's imaging fellowships." All 19 fellows (100%) trained between 1992 and 1996 have immediately gained employment upon completion of the training, compared with the 86% employment rate of radiology fellows in general. Indications are that women's imaging fellowships will continue to provide subspecialists in radiology oriented to the imaging requests of obstetrician-gynecologists and other physicians who take care of women.
