Resources and Facilities: Radiology Department
Overview
The Department of Radiology at BIDMC is committed to implementing cutting edge technologies for better patient care. Itperforms 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.
Imaging Facilities
Additional Research Centers, Laboratories and Core Facilities
- BIDMC Center for Molecular Imaging
- Center for Basic MR Research
- Longwood Small Animal Imaging Facility
- Laboratory for Functional Imaging of Cartilage
- In Vivo Optical Imaging Laboratory
- In Vivo Optical Imaging Laboratory
The In Vivo Optical Imaging Laboratory has made several significant advances both at the micro- and macroscopic levels.
- the whole-animal optical imaging system is now fully functional and has the ability to image live animals throughout the entire spectrum from visible to the near-infrared light.
- the optical microscopy laboratory has continued to explore individual molecular events during formation of liver metastases from human colon cancer, and has documented the sequence of events leading to onset of angiogenesis in these liver tumors. A new and very exciting focus has been the use of conventional ultrasound to enhance delivery of drugs into liver metastases.
