Stephen N. Kahn, MD

As a diagnostic radiologist at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to providing accurate and timely diagnoses that are crucial for patient care. My role allows me to contribute significantly to the decision-making process for patient treatment, from initial diagnosis to monitoring the effectiveness of therapies.

I specialize in abdominopelvic and non-cardiac thoracic imaging, using a variety of advanced modalities, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), ultrasound, fluoroscopy, and radiography. With more than 20 years of experience, I have honed my skills in these areas, ensuring precise and reliable diagnostic results. Additionally, I perform fine needle aspiration for diagnostic purposes, with a particular focus on thyroid nodule assessment.

Throughout my career, I have remained committed to proactive healthcare engagement. Although much of my work is behind the scenes, I value the moments when I interact directly with patients during diagnostic procedures. During these interactions, I strive to educate and reassure patients, often using humor to ease their stress during what can be a challenging time.

My journey into medicine was driven by a desire to help people, and I chose diagnostic radiology because it is integral to nearly every aspect of patient care. My educational background and extensive experience have equipped me with the knowledge and skills necessary to excel in this field. Being part of NYU Langone allows me to collaborate with a dedicated team, ensuring that our patients receive comprehensive and coordinated care.
