Get to Know Me

I am a radiologist and nuclear medicine specialist at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK). As a nuclear medicine specialist, I have special training in using radioactive drugs to diagnose and treat diseases.

I have fellowship training in body oncologic imaging and nuclear medicine. I am an expert in multiple imaging technologies that are used to diagnose cancer, including positron emission tomography (PET), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and computed tomography (CT).

I have a special interest in oncologic and molecular imaging, as well as targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT), a type of treatment that uses radioactive materials to target and kill cancer cells. I am committed to providing the highest standard of care and work closely with different types of experts so that each person receives the most precise and effective treatment possible.
