550 First Avenue (at 31st Street) New York, NY 10016 www.NYULMC.org Physician Referral: 888-7-NYU-MED (888-769-8633) RADIOLOGY The Department of Radiology at NYU Langone Medical Center is committed to capturing the best images possible with the lowest dose of radiation. As an academic medical center, our radiologists are in a unique position to take the lead in helping to define and advance radiology in today’s rapidly advancing technological environment. Expertise NYU Langone Medical Center’s board certified radiologists and licensed technologists specialize in imaging and are involved in a variety of innovative collaborations and research initiatives. The Department consists of over 100 sub-specialized academic radiologists, many of them acknowledged leaders and innovators in their fields. Advanced Technology NYU Langone uses some of the most advanced imaging equipment in the world, including high and ultra high-field MRI imaging systems (known as 1.5T and 3T magnets). Its MRI scanners are shorter and wider than ever, making for a more patient-friendly experience. The Center for Biomedical Imaging, an advanced research facility, features a powerful 7T magnet. Recognition for Safety and Quality We continually follow a rigorous set of quality standards and maintain accreditation by the American College of Radiology (ACR). We are designated by the ACR as a “Breast Imaging Center of Excellence” and maintaining high practice standards in image quality, personnel qualifications, facility equipment, quality control procedures and quality assurance programs. Patient Focused Approach We are conveniently located and participate in many insurance plans. We ensure timely delivery of reports and images and allow physicians to view patient exam status, reports and images online from their office. In addition to our convenient hours, weekend, evening and often same-day appointments are available. Language interpretation services are available as needed. Our Areas of Specialization We offer an extensive range of diagnostic services around MRI, CT, ultrasound, PET/CT, X-ray, interventional radiology and nuclear medicine. Sub-specialized radiologists provide diagnostic interpretation in abdominal, biomedical, breast, cardiac, chest, emergency, general, musculoskeletal, neuroradiology, neuro interventional, nuclear medicine, pediatric, vascular interventional and women’s imaging. Specialty procedures include coronary artery disease and virtual colonoscopy screening, stereotactic biopsy capability, minimally invasive techniques including radiofrequency ablation, chemoembolization, radioimmunotherapy and bone densitometry.
