About Dr. Choi
Dr. Haesun Choi joined MD Anderson Cancer Center in 1999 as a clinical radiologist. She is specialized in body MRI and CT. Her clinical experience is focused on male and female pelvic MRI, including the prostate, uterus, cervix and rectum, liver imaging, functional MRI including dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) - MRI, DWI and spectroscopy (MRS). She has extensive clinical experience on prostate MRI parallels with building up a highly successful prostate imaging program at MD Anderson Cancer Center. Over the last 10 years, Dr. Choi has been involved in the development and application of the non-invasive methods for liver fat and iron quatitaion and evaluation of the underlying liver fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Dr. Choi believes that as an oncologic radiologist, one of the most important contributions in research as well as clinical patient care, is provision of accurate and reliable measures of tumor response, which has lead to develop the so called "Choi Criteria".
