We are a team of internationally recognized, imaging experts dedicated to training the next generation of radiologists, advancing basic science for clinical practice, and above all else providing quality and compassionate care to patients. Our commitment to patients is our number one priority.
The Department aspires to train undergraduate and graduate learners in Diagnostic Radiology, Interventional Radiology, and subspecialty radiology to be well-rounded physicians poised for clinical success and ready for the challenges of the future.
The Department aspires to be at the forefront of where basic science has an immediate impact on clinical care. We do this through research both in our radiological science teams as well as within our clinical divisions.
At UNC Radiology, we seek to provide excellent and compassionate state-of-the-art care to our patients, equip medical students with basic imaging knowledge, train future academic and private practice radiologists, and engage in cutting-edge radiological sciences and clinical research.
Uzay E. Emir, PhD, sat to discuss his research, how being an academic was in his career path even as a little kid, and his belief that there are no stupid questions. Dr. Emir, is an Associate Professor in the UNC Department of Radiology with a joint appointment in the Department of Biomedical Engineering. Director of MRI physics at the BRIC. He received a PhD from Bogazici University, Turkey.
Priya Mody, MD, is an Assistant Professor in the Interventional Radiology Division. She sat down with our interviewer to discuss what eventually drew her into interventional radiology, and her advice to others considering the field of radiology (let go of the vision of a boring person in a dark room all day).
She has found that accurate diagnostic mammography outcomes vary by racial and ethnic groups.
Meet Yukie Kajita and learn about her role, which involves facilitating data acquisition for breast cancer research endeavors. Her efforts positively impact patients’ lives and enhance public health outcomes.
Dr. Donnelly would like to take some of the things that he has seen work well in providing excellent pediatric healthcare in independent children’s hospitals and try to advocate for that approach toward pediatrics at UNC.
