Radiology Subspecialties-
(This list is not complete- it will expand as we enhance the Radiology site.)

Genitourinary Radiology: We provide radiological diagnosis and evaluation of the genital and urinary systems (kidneys, ureters, and bladder). The Genitourinary Division is responsible for overseeing protocols and interpretations of urography and participating in cross sectional imaging, especially when it pertains to GU Radiology. More Information

Neuroradiology: Neuroradiology is the branch of radiology that deals with the nervous system. We use many different methods of obtaining images in diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the nervous system. Imaging methods include Diagnostic Xray, Computed Tomography (CT scan), Fluoroscopy, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Nuclear Medicine, and Ultrasound. More Information

Pediatric Radiology: The Pediatric Radiology Service provides imaging for children of all ages including plain film radiography, ultrasound, CT, MRI, fluoroscopy and nuclear medicine. Pediatric film review sessions occur daily between the pediatric radiologist and the pediatricians caring for inpatients. While the pediatric radiologist is involved in many of the studies performed on children, other subspecialists within the Department of Radiology assist in the care of pediatric patients. More Information

Radiation Oncology: The Radiation Oncology Division at Fletcher Allen Health Care offers a full complement of radiation services for cancer management. The Division has two dual energy Varian linear accelerators, a Gamma-Med high dose rate remote brachytherapy unit, a superficial energy unit, and fluoroscopic Odelft simulator. More Information

Thoracic Radiology: This division is responsible for the performance and interpretation of conventional chest radiographs, chest CT studies, thoracic MR examinations including cardiac MR, and image-guided thoracic interventions including transthoracic needle biopsies and percutaneous drainage of intrathoracic collections. More Information

Vascular and Interventional Radiology: The Division of Vascular and Interventional Radiology at Fletcher-Allen Health care provides a full range of interventional services including venous access and infusion port placement, arterial and venous diagnostic and therapeutic procedures including PTA and stent placement, uterine artery embolization, endovascular placement of aortic stent-grafts, and renal, biliary and GI interventions.
