Personal Statement
As an abdominal imager, my clinical time encompasses all cross-sectional areas of abdominal imaging and intervention, a large part of which is devoted to medical student, resident and fellow teaching, especially relating to liver pathology. In our Center for Molecular Imaging, I am funded to develop techniques for the in vivo imaging of the individual sequential steps that occur during formation of hepatic colon cancer metastases.
