ÀÇÎѵ¼º½ Me
As an academic abdominal radiologist at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to enhancing patient outcomes through precise and timely imaging interpretations. My clinical expertise spans multimodality abdominopelvic imaging, including computed tomography (CT), ultrasound, radiography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and fluoroscopy. I focus particularly on oncology, specifically gynecologic and rectal cancers, as well as benign gynecologic diseases. My goal is to provide the highest quality of clinical care in every case, ensuring that my patients receive accurate and directed diagnoses that guide their treatment plans effectively.
I specialize in interpreting complex imaging studies, which is crucial for managing chronic conditions such as cancer. With extensive training and years of experience, I am adept at identifying subtle abnormalities that can significantly impact patient care. My commitment to proactive healthcare engagement is reflected in my active participation in multidisciplinary conferences and tumor boards. At NYU Langone, I collaborate with colleagues to determine the best course of action for our patients, ensuring they benefit from a comprehensive and coordinated care plan.
Throughout my career, I have been deeply involved in medical education, nurturing the next generation of healthcare professionals. Since 2019, I have served as the director of pre-clinical medical student education in radiology and the content director of radiology in the preclinical sciences with the Office of Medical Education. My dedication to education has been recognized with several awards at the departmental, institutional, and national levels. In 2023, I completed a master's degree in health professions education from Maastricht University in the Netherlands, further honing my skills as an educator and enhancing my ability to contribute to the academic community.
My journey into medicine was inspired by a profound desire to make a difference in patients' lives through the power of diagnostic imaging. At NYU Langone, I am proud to be part of a team that prioritizes patient wellness and fosters a supportive, collaborative environment. Together, we strive to deliver exceptional care and advance the field of radiology through continuous learning and innovation.
