Barton Lane
Professor of Radiology (Diagnostic Radiology) at the Stanford University Medical Center, Emeritus
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsAs a professor in the Medical Center Line, my primary investigative interest has been in clinical neuroradiology. This encompasses spinal cord and spine disease, degenerative and demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system, strokes and infarction, and chronic epilepsy syndromes. Facial and head and neck vascular malformations and hemangiomas have been a focus of interest for many years, with collaborative projects involving dermatology and functional restoration services.

Curtis Langlotz
Senior Associate Vice Provost for Research, Professor of Radiology (Integrative Biomedical Imaging Informatics), of Medicine (BMIR), of Biomedical Data Science and Senior Fellow at the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy laboratory develops machine learning methods to help physicians detect disease and eliminate diagnostic errors. My laboratory is developing neural network systems that detect and classify disease on medical images. We also develop natural language processing methods that use the narrative radiology report for contrastive learning and other multi-modal methods that improve the accuracy and capability of machine learning systems.

David Larson
Professor of Radiology (Pediatric Radiology)
BioDavid B. Larson, MD, MBA, is Professor of Radiology (Pediatric Radiology) in the Department of Radiology at Stanford University. His career is focused on managing and improving complex sociotechnical healthcare systems to drive continuous operational improvement for the benefit of patients and clinicians. His research and leadership activities span the sociotechnical spectrum, from the development of process control systems that optimize CT radiation dose to transitioning the field of radiology from "peer review" toward "peer learning" to foster a more collaborative and constructive work environment.
He has founded and directed numerous improvement programs at Stanford and beyond, including Stanford’s Realizing Improvement through Team Empowerment (RITE) program, the Clinical Effectiveness Leadership Training (CELT) (program co-founder), Stanford Medicine's Improvement Capability Development Program (ICDP), and the Stanford Medicine Center for Improvement's (SMCI's) Advanced Course in Improvement Science (ACIS). He is also the founder and co-director of the American College of Radiology's (ACR's) Learning Network, its various Improvement Collaboratives, and the ImPower improvement training and project support program.
Dr. Larson served for over 10 years in various senior leadership roles in the Stanford Department of Radiology, including Associate Chair for Performance Improvement, Vice Chair for Education and Clinical Operations, Executive Vice Chair, and Acting Chair. He currently serves as the Director of the Stanford Radiology AI Development and Evaluation (AIDE) Lab. He also serves as the Associate Chief Quality Officer for Improvement for Stanford Health Care.
Dr. Larson has applied his experience to advance the thinking and application of systematic improvement methods in the field of radiology. He is the founder and program chair for the annual Radiology Improvement Summit held annually at Stanford, which began in 2016. He serves on the Board of Trustees of the American Board of Radiology, overseeing quality and safety, and on the Board of Chancellors for the American College of Radiology as the chair of the ACR's Commission on Quality and Safety.
Prior to his position at Stanford, Dr. Larson was the Janet L. Strife Chair for Quality and Safety in Radiology and a faculty member of the James M. Anderson Center for Health Systems Excellence at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital in Cincinnati, Ohio. He holds MD and MBA degrees from Yale University and completed his pediatric internship and radiology residency and fellowship at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center in Denver, Colorado. Dr. Larson practices clinically at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital at Stanford. -

Marc Levenston
Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering and, by courtesy, of Radiology (Radiological Sciences Laboratory)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy lab's research involves the function, degeneration and repair of musculoskeletal soft tissues, with a focus on meniscal fibrocartilage and articular cartilage. We are particularly interested in the complex interactions between biophysical and biochemical cues in controlling cell behavior, the roles of these interactions in degenerative conditions such as osteoarthritis, and development of tissue engineered 3D model systems for studying physical influences on primary and progenitor cells.

Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMolecular Imaging Instrumentation
Laboratory
Our research interests involve the development of novel instrumentation and software algorithms for in vivo imaging of cellular and molecular signatures of disease in humans and small laboratory animal subjects. -
Congyu Liao
Instructor, Radiology
BioCongyu Liao is an Instructor in the Radiological Sciences Laboratory (RSL) at Stanford University. Dr. Liao earned his PhD in Biomedical Engineering from Zhejiang University, China, in 2018. Following his PhD, he joined the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow under Dr. Kawin Setsompop, where his research focused on improving MRI data acquisition and reconstruction efficiency. In 2021, he joined Dr. Setsompop's lab at Stanford RSL as an Instructor, with research focused on developing novel technologies for diffusion and quantitative MRI. Dr. Liao has received several honors, including the Summa Cum Laude Merit Award and the Junior Fellow Award from the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM). Recently, he was awarded an NIH R01 grant as Principal Investigator to use mesoscale quantitative and diffusion MRI techniques to study infant brain development.
