Overview
I specialize in the imaging of diseases affecting the lungs and heart. I do this by reviewing chest radiographs (X-rays), CT, and MRI. I also perform procedures in the chest including lung biopsies, chest tube placement, and fluid drainage using CT guidance. I am passionate about providing excellent patient care, radiology education, and serving as a consultant to all providers at Duke Health.
