Radiology

Welcome

Brigham and Women’s Hospital radiologists and staff provide the highest quality diagnostic and interventional imaging services in a caring and efficient manner while sustaining outstanding programs in research and education.

The Department of Radiology is fully integrated with medical services available at Brigham and Women’s Hospital. More than 200 radiologists and physicists work closely with 1,000 support staff to fulfill the mission of the department.

BWH Radiology provides imaging services at a number of suburban, community-based locations including Chestnut Hill, Foxborough and East Bridgewater. The imaging facilities at these locations are fully staffed and operated by BWH Radiology. BWH staff radiologists provide expert, subspecialty image interpretation at four additional community hospitals and imaging centers in Metro Boston and Southeastern Massachusetts.

Experts in radiology consult with specialists in other departments to ensure a seamless integration of diagnostic services, treatment and follow-up services. Our radiologists work with state-of-the-art equipment, assisted by skilled technologists and nurses, to perform and interpret over 500,000 examinations yearly. This large number of cases, combined with ongoing research and education, results in wide-ranging expertise in the imaging and treatment of diseases affecting our patients.
