The selection of neuroradiology fellows who will start on July 1, 2005, marked the fourth year in which program directors in neuroradiology used the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) as the selection modality. The aim of this study was to investigate fellowship candidates' views regarding the match process. ⋯ The majority of fellowship candidates felt that the match system for selection is a fair process and were satisfied with the outcome. However, the perceived disadvantages produced tepid (54.5%) support for the continuation of the match. Program directors in neuroradiology and other radiologic subspecialties should consider the data provided in this article in deciding the future selection process.
