Radiology

In WVU’s Department of Radiology, our doctors study images of the internal structures and parts of the body to diagnose diseases, conditions, and bone fractures. These images are taken and recorded by various means, such as x-rays, MRIs, PET/CT scans, and others.

Specialized physicians provide diagnostic services in neuroradiology, musculoskeletal imaging, cardiothoracic medicine, pediatrics, body imaging, and nuclear medicine. A dedicated breast care center offers mammography and diagnostic breast procedures.

The department also has a robust interventional radiology program as well as interventional neuroradiology, providing round the clock, high-end coverage for minimally invasive vascular and non-vascular procedures.


WVU's radiology services help diagnose and treat a range of problems from fractures to cancer. Mathis Frick, MD, chair of the WVU radiology department, explains.
