Biography

"My work involves using imaging technology for diagnosis and in the guidance of minimally invasive interventions. It is very gratifying to employ these techniques to improve outcomes and decrease the discomfort of treatment for childhood diseases. I also value highly the interactions I have with the wonderful group of excellent pediatric specialists here at Children's. I help them apply and interpret the increasingly sophisticated imaging available to their clinical work with children. We work together in the research arena to increase our understanding, and ultimately enhance our treatment, of diseases that afflict children."
