Interim Division Head

What do we do? The Division of Radiology at National Jewish Health currently comprises seven fellowship trained cardiothoracic radiologists. We interpret chest radiographs, chest CT scans, and other thoracic and nonthoracic images. Our particular expertise and international reputation is in interpretation of high resolution chest CT for diffuse lung disease. We are also experts in interpretation of cardiac CT and MR studies. We perform ILO B- reads to screen for occupational lung disease. We also perform percutaneous needle biopsies of lung lesions.

Why National Jewish Health? The Division has an active teaching program for radiology residents, as well as pulmonary, radiology and occupational & environmental medicine fellows. Interdisciplinary dialogue and education is a core value of the division, and we conduct numerous interdisciplinary conferences, in interstitial lung disease, occupational & environmental lung disease, mycobacterial disease, thoracic surgery, cardiac disease and radiologic-pathologic correlation.

The Division has an active research program in thoracic imaging, with a particular focus on high resolution CT of diffuse lung disease and quantitative imaging. Currently funded research projects include CAMP, IPFNet, COPD and screening for lung cancer. The Quantitative Imaging Lab (QIL) analyzes images to provide quantification of asthma, interstitial lung disease and COPD for these projects.
