We also operate five CT scanners, which incorporate spiral CT capability. Breast Imaging Center is a beautifully designed and very busy facility. The center has all the necessary equipment for performing a complete workup of breast disease in a single patient visit, including a biopsy if necessary. Last but not least, we have upgraded the radiographic and fluoroscopic equipment in the main department and built an attractive new radiology library. O f course, equipment can take us only so far.
People are what make that equipment produce the necessary results.
I'm very proud of the high quality of our current faculty and also of the residents and fellows we've been able to attract to our training programs. We currently have nine clinical divisions, and every one of them is characterized by strength and depth in the clinical, research, and educational spheres. Many of our faculty members are leaders in their fields nationwide. Radiology at Jefferson D etails about our research programs can be found elsewhere on this web page. In terms of publications, outside grants, and presentation of scientific papers at national meetings, Jefferson's department of radiology clearly ranks among the premier academic radiology departments in the country in its research program.
