Neuroradiology

Neuroradiology encompasses all diagnostic and therapeutic examinations performed on the central and peripheral nervous systems. It is an ACGME approved subspecialty of Radiology. Diagnostic Neuroradiology at the University of California San Francisco consists of nine full time neuroradiologists, five ACGME approved first-year postdoctoral fellows, and three to four second-year postdoctoral fellows. Interventional Neuroradiology consists of three full time faculty and two post doctoral fellows. Clinical sites of coverage include UCSF Moffitt/Long Hospital; UCSF/Mt. Zion Hospital, San Francisco General Hospital, and the San Francisco VA Medical Center.

Number of Procedures per year: 7,500 CTs, 15,000 MRIs, 1,016 Diagnostic Angiograms, 650 Interventional procedures, 200 myelograms/spinal injections, 75 biopsies/spine interventional procedures. Perfusion CT, Functional MR, Perfusion MR imaging, Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy and Diffusion Tensor Imaging is incorporated into the daily clinical practice.

Close collaboration with the Departments of Neurology and Neurological Surgery, Pediatrics, Otolaryngology, and Radiation Oncology provides a stimulating collegial atmosphere through daily interactions during readout sessions, conferences, tumor boards, and grand rounds.

Expertise is provided by subspecialists in Head and Neck imaging, Pediatric Neuroradiology, Functional Neuroradiology, Neurovascular Imaging and Magnetic Source Imaging, CNS trauma, and Spine.

Residents and clinical instructors serve on rotations staffed by the Section of Neuroradiology at San Francisco General Hospital, UCSF Moffitt/Long Hospital, San Francisco VA Medical Center, and UCSF-Mt. Zion Hospital.
