Which master program prior to radiology residency for IMG?

Hello, everyone

I would greatly appreciate your advice. I am a non-US IMG, old grad (2009), step 1 245, 2CK 261, ecfmg-certified. IM background in my home country. I want to get into Radiology, no Radiology experience. I don't want to go into IM. Honestly, I don't have enough money for USCE or research, but my country can sponsor a Master (of science) program in the USA. My question is if I do a Master in Bioimaging (one program at Boston University which can be sponsored) do you think that will increase my chances of getting into Radiology residency? The master's program requires TOEFL, GRE. In Bioimaging, they teach the basics of human imaging (CT, MRI), anatomy, ethics, protection, etc. In return for sponsoring me, I will have to work in my home country for 3-5 years or return the money for education, which can be done in the case of matching into Radiology. Some advise a master's in Medical Physics (but it's long 2 ys and tough), what about a Master's in Clinical Research (disadvantage no Radiology exposure).

I appreciate your reply. Many thanks.
