Division of Neuroradiology
Neuroradiology Care, Research & Education
The Division of Neuroradiology at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) specializes in interpreting medical images of the brain, spinal cord, head and neck, and vascular system to accurately diagnose and guide treatment for a wide range of neurological conditions. Using advanced imaging technologies such as MRI, CT, and angiography, our highly experienced team performs approximately 60,000 imaging studies each year in Boston and across our community sites.
We collaborate closely with the Departments of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Neuropathology to provide integrated, patient-centered care, as well as hands-on education and innovative research opportunities. Our neuroradiologists are committed to delivering precise, timely evaluations that support the best possible outcomes. For imaging appointments or further information, please contact our scheduling office.
More About the Division
Care & Services
Our team of expert neuroradiologists provides interpretation of the full range of CT and MRI exams of the brain and spine, including functional MRI of the brain, CT angiography of the head and neck, as well as ENT- and ophthalmology-related CT and MRI head and neck imaging. We also perform diagnostic, image-guided procedures (e.g., lumbar puncture and myelography).
Our Facilities
- 11 helical multidetector CT instruments across the sites, including at the Emergency Departments.
- 10 human MR systems, eight 1.5T, two 3T.
- Two small-bore, high-field MR systems.
