Professional summary

I am an academic and clinical radiologist, with a wide range of research, educational and clinical interests. I was trained as a general and interventional radiologist and was fortunate to learn from the early days of high field (1.5T) MRI and musculoskeletal ultrasound. I developed a wide range of skills in musculoskeletal intervention and interventional oncology over 2 decades of practice. Working in the Australian national breast screening program from its infancy, I subsequently helped to establish the Singapore national breast screening program.
