About Me
As the division chief of musculoskeletal radiology and enterprise director of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to advancing the field of radiology through innovative imaging techniques and patient–centered care. My role allows me to combine my passion for cutting-edge technology with my commitment to improving patient outcomes, ensuring that everyone receives the highest standard of care.
I specialize in musculoskeletal MRI techniques, focusing on areas such as metal artifact reduction MRI, MR neurography, interventional MR imaging, and the integration of machine learning into radiological practices. With over 15 years of experience in radiology, I have developed a deep expertise that enables me to diagnose and manage complex musculoskeletal conditions effectively. My extensive training and credentials, including my position as a professor of radiology at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, underscore my dedication to the field.
Throughout my career, I have been actively involved in research and education, authoring more than 275 peer-reviewed scientific articles, reviews, and book chapters. I have also had the privilege of delivering lectures at numerous national and international conferences, sharing my knowledge and insights with peers and aspiring radiologists. My editorial roles with leading journals such as Radiology, Skeletal Radiology, and Investigative Radiology further reflect my commitment to advancing the field through scholarly contributions.
My journey into radiology was inspired by a fascination with medical imaging and its potential to transform patient care. I pursued my medical degree with a focus on radiology, driven by the desire to leverage technology to diagnose and treat musculoskeletal conditions accurately. At NYU Langone, I am proud to be part of a team that collaborates to provide coordinated and comprehensive care, ensuring that our patients receive the best possible outcomes.
