About Me

What I Do at MSK
  • Head, Breast Imaging Clinical Workflow
Get To Know Me

I am a radiologist specializing in breast imaging. I completed a residency in diagnostic radiology at the University of Pennsylvania and a one-year fellowship in breast and body imaging at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Since joining the Memorial Sloan Kettering faculty in 2009, I have dedicated my time to clinical care, education, and research.

I interpret all modalities of screening and diagnostic breast imaging, including mammography, ultrasound, and MRI. I perform all types of image-guided breast interventional procedures, including stereotactic biopsy, ultrasound-guided biopsy, MR-guided biopsy, and radioactive seed placement and wire localizations. I also train and supervise residents from Weill Cornell Medical College and breast fellows from Memorial Sloan Kettering in interpreting breast-images and in interventional breast procedures.

My research focuses on imaging for early breast cancer detection in women who are at intermediate and high risk for developing breast cancer. With others in the Breast Imaging Service, I have written multiple scientific articles defining groups of women who will benefit from screening that is more intensive than routine, annual mammography.  I frequently am invited to lecture on this and other topics in breast imaging. In recognition of my accomplishments, I have been named a Fellow of the Society of Breast Imaging.

My Role at MSK

A radiologist is a doctor with special training in using imaging to diagnose and treat disease. Imaging includes X-rays, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
