Seth Kligerman, MD, MS, Professor and Chair
What do we do? The Department of Radiology at National Jewish Health performs imaging studies and provides interpretations of those studies, as well as provide second opinions on outside studies.
The National Jewish Health Department of Radiology includes eight on-site fellowship trained cardiothoracic radiologists. In addition, we have 26 consultant radiologists in pediatric radiology, neuroradiology and musculoskeletal radiology.
Our highly experienced team of radiology technologists and cardiothoracic radiologists are experts in chest imaging. We specialize in interpreting imaging studies of the chest including chest x-rays, B-reads, chest CT scans, PET/CT scans, MRI, nuclear medicine studies and qualitative imaging. We are renowned for our expertise in thoracic imaging and have a proven track record of identifying diseases others have missed.
Why National Jewish Health? At National Jewish Health we image more lungs than any other organization in the nation. Our narrow focus on the lungs and our collaborative relationships with our clinical experts across the spectrum of care, means you are in the best hands for finding an accurate diagnosis. Knowing the correct diagnosis leads to more effective treatment and better outcomes.
