Neuro Imaging
The Division of Neuroradiology at Albany Medical Center offers high level imaging of the central nervous system and head and neck for both adult and pediatric patients. We have been designed as a comprehensive stroke center by the NY State Department of Health. Our department offers high level imaging including CT angiography/CT perfusion and MRI imaging including MR angiograms, diffusion tensor imaging, functional MRI (fMRI), MR spectroscopy and perfusion and vessel wall imaging. We work closely with our neurologists, neurosurgeons and interventional neurosurgeons to diagnose and treat our patients through all aspects of acute care, inpatient and outpatient care. Our 3-D lab provides specialized three dimensional reconstructions to assist in diagnosis.
Our fellowship-trained neuroradiologists are board certified in diagnostic radiology and have earned Certificates of Added Qualification (CAQ) in neuroradiology. We participate in many multidisciplinary conferences including pediatric neurology, adult and pediatric epilepsy, head and neck tumor board, and neurosurgery/oncology conference. Our neuroradiologists give weekly Thursday conference to our residents utilizing didactic lectures and case conferences.
