About
Tony Jeanmenne, MD, completed the musculoskeletal imaging fellowship at the University of California – San Diego, California (2014-15), where he served as Chief Fellow. Prior to that, he completed medical school and residency in diagnostic radiology at Southern Illinois University in Springfield, Illinois (2010-14), where he was awarded the RSNA Roentgen Research Award for the creation of an iPad application used for radiology education. He has presented his work at multiple national radiology meetings.
Dr. Jeanmenne knew he wanted to become a radiologist before starting medical school. While in college, he had the opportunity to observe image-guided procedures during hospital volunteering experiences. Radiology is an excellent mix of anatomy, pathology, technology, and procedural patient care.
For six years prior to joining UNC Radiology, Dr. Jeanmenne worked at Center for Diagnostic Imaging (Sartell, MN). While at CDI, Dr. Jeanmenne has completed several projects with the CDI Quality Institute. Most recently he authored “The Consult: Appropriate Use of Imaging in Patients with Knee Pain,” as part of a qualified Provider Led Entity for Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) to assist referring medical providers in selecting the best cross-sectional imaging study for their patient. Dr. Jeanmenne’s clinical and teaching interests include MRI interpretation and image-guided procedures.

My philosophy of care is to always treat the patient and not the picture. The images we obtain ultimately help guide our diagnosis and therapy options, but the primary concern of the patient should always remain the focus while assessing the diagnostic images.
