| Note. Anesthesia-related skills include airway management and vascular access. Psychiatry/clinical psychology, neurology, and neuroradiology training are fully integrated in MDACC’s pain medicine fellowship. In addition, fellows have a minimum of 1 week designated with pain medicine faculty representing each of those disciplines. MDACC faculty outside the chronic cancer pain medicine section supervise operating room anesthesia, palliative care, and physical medicine and rehabilitation. |
