Biography
I am a board-certified nuclear medicine physician who cares for patients using radiotargeted therapy, particularly for people with thyroid cancer. My clinical interests focus on the use of positron emission tomography (PET) for diagnostic and molecular imaging, as well as targeted therapy and theranostics. At Memorial Sloan Kettering, I use radioantibodies and PET in oncologic imaging, both for basic research and patient management.
