My clinical expertise involve abdominal imaging and imaging guided interventions of the chest, abdomen and pelvis. I am actively involved in providing clinical care for patients with hepatic, renal and other abdominal tumors. In 2003, I established the Tumor Ablation Clinic at MGH and served as the director between 2003 and 2013 and fostered the integration of the Tumor Ablation Clinic into the Liver Multidisciplinary Oncology Clinic at the MGH. I have seen and coordinated the care of approximately 1500 patients with hepatic and renal tumors who have been seen in this clinic. I provided education and treatment planning for patients and coordinated patient care with referring oncologists, surgeons and hepatologists and fostered the use of locoregional therapies to treat liver cancer for patients awaiting liver transplant.
My expertise in non-vascular imaging guided interventions has led to invitations to lecture on these topics locally, nationally and internationally. In 2011, I published a textbook on Non-Vascular Interventional Radiology of the Abdomen. I hold membership in numerous professional societies including the Radiological Society of North America, Society of Interventional Radiology, American Roentgen Ray Society, the Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiology Society of Europe, Society of Abdominal Radiology and I am one of the founding members of the Society of Interventional Oncology. I have served on the American College of Radiology Appropriateness Criteria committee to develop and publish guidelines on the appropriate use of imaging to evaluate abdominal and pelvic diseases. I am Chairman of the Membership Committee for the Society of Interventional Oncology. I also serve as the Chairman of the Scientific Program Committee, the Chairman of the Subcommittee on Vascular Imaging and Annual Meeting Program Committee for the Radiological Society of North America, the most prestigious radiological professional society. I serve on the Editorial board for the journal, Digestive Diseases Interventions.
