Chief, Nuclear Medicine and PET
Professor, Department of Diagnostic Imaging
My main work is in diagnostic imaging using radiotracers for staging, follow-up, and monitoring of various tumors. I also treat patients with unsealed source radiotracer for thyroid cancer, NHL, pancreatic cancer, and bone pain palliation. I’m authorized user for SIR-sphere and Therasphere as well.
Patient first.
