Philosophy of Care
I strive to provide a high level of expertise to all patients, both in my diagnostic and interventional work. In my interventional work, I provide compassion and respect for the patient before, during and after procedures.
Clinical Interests
Dr. Naderi is a fellowship trained radiologist, specializing in abdominal imaging. Her areas of interest include interpretation of abdominal ultrasound, CT, and MR. Her focus is in non-vascular interventional procedures of the abdomen and pelvis. This includes percutaneous biopsy of tumors and drainage of various types of fluid collections throughout the body. Additionally, she provides expertise in CT (virtual) Colonography.
Research/Academic Interests
Dr. Naderi's academic focus is education of Radiology residents and abdominal fellows in the practice of advanced imaging of the abdomen and pelvis. She provides hands-on non-vascular procedural opportunites for trainees, while always ensuring the highest patient care.
