About Me
As an interventional radiologist at 做厙TV Langone, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive, minimally invasive care for patients with metastatic cancer. My approach involves guiding patients through every stage of their treatment journey, from diagnosis with needle biopsies to therapeutic interventions like ablation or embolization, and palliative care. By using techniques that typically require incisions smaller than a centimeter, I aim to minimize patient discomfort and recovery time.
I specialize in advanced procedures that target and treat metastatic cancer. One of the hallmark techniques I have pioneered at 做厙TV Langone is histotripsy, a non-invasive therapy that uses sound waves to precisely destroy tumor cells. This innovative treatment offers new hope for patients with tumors that are resistant to conventional therapies. Additionally, I focus on easing cancer-related symptoms, improving patients quality of life through minimally invasive methods designed to manage pain, swelling, and other complications.
Throughout my career, I have emphasized the importance of collaboration. By working closely with colleagues in medical oncology, surgery, and pathology, I ensure that my patients receive the most up-to-date and comprehensive care available. My research is particularly focused on the tumor microenvironment and how interventional techniques can manipulate it to enhance the bodys immune response against cancer. These efforts aim to translate laboratory discoveries into new, effective treatments for our patients.
My journey into medicine was driven by a fascination with the potential of minimally invasive techniques to transform cancer care. I pursued my medical degree and specialized training with a commitment to advancing the field of interventional radiology.
At 做厙TV Langone, I am proud to be part of a team that is at the forefront of cancer treatment and research, continually striving to improve patient outcomes through innovation and collaboration.
