About Me
I first came to Ohio State as a neuroradiology fellow in July 2008 and subsequently joined the clinical faculty. Having completed postgraduate training at here, I feel a sense of loyalty to the university and a strong desire to leverage my experiences to enhance the training of other radiologists. I currently serve as the associate program director of the Neuroradiology Fellowship Program and am a member of the diagnostic radiology residency selection and interviewing committee. I'm also the founding chief of the Ohio State chapter of RAD-AID, an international not-for-profit global outreach organization for radiology.
In addition to my role as a diagnostic neuroradiologist, I also contribute to Ohio State's mission of education and research. I'm a manuscript reviewer for Neurographics, the primary educational journal of my subspecialty society, and am a member of an American College of Radiology (ACR) Appropriateness Criteria Expert Panel. I was the lead author on a study examining a training regimen designed to improve healthcare professionals’ advanced communication skills and their ability to apply nonpharmacologic methods to reduce anxiety in patients undergoing potentially stressful medical procedures, which resulted in a Best Paper award for 2017 in Training and Education by the Journal of the ACR.

Consulting and Related Relationships
At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care. In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
As of 09/30/2022, Dr. Ajam has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
