The people and programs comprising Stanford Radiology are world-renowned. Stanford Radiology is focused on the important role in the development of personalized medicine by translating advances from the laboratories to the clinic for improved patient-centric care. Anticipating better tools for implementing personalized medicine, we are developing a patient-centric approach to radiology that will greatly increase the interaction between radiologists and their patients. In this way, radiologists will no longer be invisible, behind-the-scenes, contributors to their patients, but will be front and center members of their patients' health care teams.
