With a highly structured database of more than 10 years of scans, this provides a mammoth opportunity for both clinical development and research. We are also home to a nationally recognized Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy program.

We work in close collaboration with pulmonologists, cardiologists, thoracic oncologists and cardiothoracic surgeons to provide the highest care to our patients. We participate in weekly and monthly interdisciplinary conferences to this effect. In addition to clinical duties, there is ample opportunity to teach Radiology residents and participate in research.
