Pioneering Patient Care
For over 100 years, the Department of Radiology at Massachusetts General Hospital has pioneered imaging technology to improve human health.
Today, our research labs are developing powerful new ways to diagnose and treat many diseases. From the lab to the clinic, our community of radiologists and researchers are bringing advances directly to our patients.
Research Labs
3D Imaging Lab
The 3D Imaging Lab conducts translational research on using CAD and quantitative disease analysis on medical images to enhance patient care.
AR/VR Lab
The Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality (AR/VR) Lab at Mass General fosters the development of innovative imaging processes by producing an immersive environment to improve patient-centered care, enhance diagnosis and treatment, and elevate medical education. AR/VR allows medical professionals to simulate routine patient care and practice skills using innovative 3D technology.
Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging
The Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging at Massachusetts General Hospital is one of the world’s premier research centers devoted to development and application of advanced biomedical imaging technologies.
Cardiovascular Imaging Research Center
The Cardiovascular Imaging Research Center creates new opportunities to use the combined power of AI and imaging for biomarker discovery and improvements in population health, multisystem imaging to unlock the secrets of how external stress leads to brain activation that advances atherosclerosis and how to address the excess risk of cardiovascular disease among patients with cancer.
Center for Molecular Imaging Research
