Design and conduct clinical trials and provide an avenue for clinical testing of novel imaging agents developed at CMIR.

Over the last several years we have conducted phase 1,2 and phase 3 clinical trials of monocrystalline iron oxides (1-2) for a number of applications. Current trials evaluate the efficacy of these agents to improve detection of subtle lymph node metastases in patients with prostate cancer (funded in part by RSNA) and renal cancer (funded in part by by SCBT).

My primary clinical interests lie in abdominal and pelvic MR imaging
