Body Imaging
At ZSFG, we uses ultrasound, CT and MRI to diagnose and treat disorders of the liver, pancreas, colon, uterus, ovaries, prostate, and bladder.
Chest Imaging
We provide a comprehensive evaluation of both the respiratory and cardiovascular systems using advanced imaging modalities:
- CT angiography (CTA) of the pulmonary arteries and aorta
- High resolution CT of the lung
- Imaging of lung cancer including a screening program
- New technologies for cardiac imaging MRI and coronary CT
Interventional Radiology
The types of disorders we evaluate and treat include primary and metastatic liver cancers, liver or bile duct diseases requiring biliary drainage, peripheral vascular diseases and disorders of circulation. Our physicians recommend appropriate therapies, refer patients for procedures, admit patients to the hospital when necessary, and see the patients for follow-up care. We work collaboratively with our surgical and medical colleagues to ensure that our patients receive the potential benefits of all therapeutic alternatives.
Musculoskeletal Imaging
We offer a full range of musculoskeletal imaging techniques with MRI, CT, and ultrasound. We also provide an array of minimally invasive treatments and diagnostic services including joint and bursal steroid injections, ultrasound-guided barbotage, and CT-guided bone biopsies.
Our expert musculoskeletal radiologist is experienced and dedicated to safely performing procedures with patient comfort in mind. We work closely with our colleagues in orthopedics, rheumatology, and endocrinology to provide expert imaging interpretations so that our veterans receive first-class care.
Neuroradiology
State-of-the-art imaging of the head and neck is offered with CT, MRI, and molecular modalities such as PET. The group has expertise in the full array of neurologic disease, including brain tumors, stroke and other vascular disorders, spine disease, neurodegenerative diseases, and brain malformations.
Neuroendovascular Surgery
Neuroendovascular surgery is a subspecialty of the UCSF Department of Radiology where world-renowned physicians develop and perfect new techniques to treat stroke, brain tumors, cerebral aneurysm and other life threatening conditions of the central nervous system through endovascular approaches.
Ultrasound
ZSFG faculty with special ultrasound expertise perform and interpret a variety of obstetric and gynecologic ultrasound exams as well as gynecologic procedures. This includes fertility workup (pelvic ultrasound, saline sonohysterogram, hysterosalpingogram), fetal evaluation (first, second, and third trimester OB ultrasound exams), and postpartum ultrasound evaluation. Our goal is to help put our patients at ease with timely and accurate ultrasound imaging during this important time in their lives.
