Medical simulation training can be used to improve clinician performance, teach communication and professionalism skills, and enhance team training. Radiology residents can benefit from simulation training in diagnostic ultrasound, procedural ultrasound, and communication skills prior to direct patient care experiences. This paper details a weeklong ultrasound simulation training curriculum for radiology residents during the PGY‐1 clinical internship. The organization of established teaching methods into a dedicated course early in radiology residency training with the benefit of a multi‐disciplinary approach makes this method unique. This framework can be adapted to fit learners at different skill levels or with specific procedural needs.
