Special Interests

Research Interests

My primary research interests revolve around, but are not limited to, cardiothoracic imaging. The diagnosis and treatment of various disease entities such as diffuse interstitial lung disease, small airway disease, pulmonary vascular disease, COPD/emphysema and lung cancer have been my primary focus in clinical practice and research. As a prior radiology residency program director and thoracic imaging section chief, teaching the best practices of diagnostic radiology, particularly as it relates to the chest, has been an additional focus of my work.
