Green campus. We deliver imaging interpretation for the busiest level 1 trauma center in South Texas, University Hospital. We perform a one-stop, triple rule out protocol CT for the evaluation of coronary arteries, pulmonary arteries and aorta. The hospital has a well-developed program for patients with interstitial lung disease and is a reputed lung transplant center. We interpret a large volume of high resolution CTs in the evaluation of a variety of interstitial lung pathologies. Affiliation with the Mays Cancer Center provides a high volume of oncology imaging. \u00a0In addition to supplying excellent patient care services, our team also focuses on resident teaching and clinical research. Every year, cardiothoracic faculty members present at national and international meetings and have published many scholarly articles in esteemed journals. We offer a one-year cardiothoracic radiology fellowship program.
