Julio Arevalo-Perez, MD, PhD
Radiologist
We post reviews for MSK healthcare providers who have at least 30 patient experience surveys completed. If you do not see reviews for a provider, it may be because they do not yet have enough survey responses, or the provider may not be part of the group of healthcare providers included in the survey.
Only outpatient providers are included in the survey. Healthcare providers who only work in the hospital or in urgent care are not included in the survey. Pathologists or researchers who do not provide direct care to patients do not have reviews.

About Me
- Assistant Attending Radiologist
I am a fellowship-trained, board-certified radiologist with experience and expertise in neuroradiology and oncologic molecular imaging. I provide diagnostic interpretations of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the brain, neck and spine. At Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), I work closely with my colleagues in urgent care, neurology, neurosurgery, and radiation oncology to offer the best care for patients with cancer.

My research interests include advanced MR brain and spine imaging with a primary focus on dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) perfusion. These advanced techniques can provide additional physiologic information that is not available through standard MRI. In turn, we can use these insights to characterize and classify brain and spine tumors, assess the extent of disease, and evaluate patient response to treatment. I am also interested in optimizing the way that we use MRI and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in the diagnosis and monitoring of brain and spine tumors.
Since I started working in the Department of Radiology at MSK, I have been actively involved in the training and education of fellows, residents, and students. I have also mentored international radiology residents and visiting researchers. I am honored to be part of this internationally-renowned institution and to have the opportunity to collaborate with some of the world’s most talented scientists. As a faculty member at MSK, I pursue clinical, research, and educational excellence, looking forward to the continued challenges that the institution and the entire scientific community will have to face to understand, diagnose, and treat cancer.
