Body Imaging Fellowship

I am delighted to welcome you to the Body Imaging Fellowship Program at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. As the program director, I have the honor of introducing you to our esteemed fellowship program, which leads the way in oncologic and body imaging, research, and education. 

At MD Anderson, we are dedicated to delivering comprehensive training that empowers our fellows with the knowledge, skills, and experience needed to become experts and leaders in the field of body imaging.

Our program is distinguished by its active involvement in multidisciplinary tumor boards, which are collaborative meetings where specialists from various medical disciplines come together to discuss and plan the treatment of complex cancer patients. These boards typically include oncologists, surgeons, radiation oncologists, radiologists, pathologists, and other healthcare professionals who contribute their expertise to develop comprehensive, personalized treatment plans.

Our Fellowship Program at MD Anderson benefits from a wealth of resources, complex cases and expertise that enhance the learning experience. Our state-of-the-art MRI, CT and PET/CT scanners, and ultrasound (US) equipment provide cutting-edge diagnostic capabilities, enabling our fellows to gain hands-on experience with the latest advancements in medical imaging technology. Our magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines offer high-resolution images allowing for precise tumor characterization and staging for example for complex liver, prostate, gynecologic and rectal cancers. Our CT scanners provide rapid, high-resolution cross-sectional images, essential for accurate tumor detection, staging, and treatment planning. Our ultrasound systems offer superior image quality with advanced Doppler capabilities and elastography, providing real-time imaging for biopsy guidance and tumor detection and characterization.

In addition to unparallel clinical training, our program places a strong emphasis on research and academic development. 

As a fellow in our program, you will have access to state-of-the-art imaging scanners, resources, and support services that are unparalleled in the field. MD Anderson offers a comprehensive and collaborative environment where fellows can thrive and grow both personally and professionally.

Thank you for considering the Body Imaging Fellowship Program at MD Anderson. We look forward to welcoming you to our community and embarking on this transformative journey together.
