At Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, we offer a complete array of radiologic tests. The Department of Radiology is committed to implementing cutting edge technologies for better patient care. The Radiology Department performs over 400,000 radiologic examinations each year. The department provides radiography, CT, ultrasound, MRI, nuclear medicine, angiography, and interventional radiology services to both the medical center as well as our affiliated health care facilities. A radiology research and animal laboratory is housed adjacent to the Radiology Department. There are over 65 full-time clinical diagnostic radiologists, 20 additional research faculty members, plus 30 clinical and post-doctoral research fellows. All residents, fellows, and faculty have appointments at Harvard Medical School.

Nondestructive techniques for accurately assessing the structural and functional integrity of cartilage are essential for defining the natural history of arthritis and for evaluating the effects of prevention and therapeutic interventions. Our long-term goal is to establish magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques for evaluating the compositional and functional integrity of articular cartilage.

The goal of the Small Animal Imaging Core (Longwood Small Animal Imaging Facility) is to provide state-of-the-art small animal imaging services to researchers in the Longwood Medical Area of Harvard Medical School. These services include multi-modality imaging, advanced data analysis, image fusion resources, and a satellite animal facility for longitudinal studies. A detailed description of our instruments and services are provided at [http://longwoodsaif.org/ LongwoodSAIF.org], and we welcome questions and comments.
