The Body Imaging Division at North Shore LIJ is a leader in providing advanced imaging services. Our team of subspecialty physicians has been assembled from the best academic institutions, and brings exemplary care to North Shore LIJ. The team includes experts in ultrasound, CT, and MRI. Our physicians are national leaders in research and education. This expertise is shared with other physicians in our teaching programs. We were one of the first institutions to offer virtual colonoscopy services; which is a minimally invasive alternative to a traditional colonoscopy.

Our division works closely with physicians throughout our institutions to offer a tailored approach to your care. These relationships make the image interpretation we provide unmatched by other radiology departments.
