    Abdelkader Mahammedi

    Clinical Associate Professor, Radiology

    BioDr. Abdelkader Mahammedi is Associate Professor of Neuroradiology at the Department of Radiology, Stanford University School of Medicine. He completed medical school at the University of Algiers in Algeria, and then continued a postdoctoral research fellowship in Diagnostic Radiology at Johns Hopkins Hospital under the mentorship of Dr. Stanley Siegelman. Prior to becoming a specialist neuroradiologist, Dr. Mahammedi completed a Neuroradiology fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic Imaging Institute after having completed residencies in both Nuclear Medicine and Diagnostic Radiology. His specialty interests include brain tumors, stroke, small vessel disease, head and neck imaging, and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Dr. Mahammedi has contributed to over 30 peer-reviewed publications, including lead authoring multiple articles in high-impact journals. During the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, he led and collaborated with multiple institutions from Italy, Spain, and Brazil. His work was considered the first and largest study in the literature that systematically characterized neurological symptoms and neuroimaging features in hospitalized COVID-19 patients, which was published in the journal Radiology. Recently, he has published the most recent multicenter and global COVID-19-related articles, which were featured by the international media in more than 25 languages including 200 newspapers, CNN, BBC, NPR, local televised broadcasts, and the 2020 RSNA Press Release. He co-authored multiple books, including “Imaging Appearance of Migraine and Tension Type Headache” and "Humanizing BrainTumors: Strategies for You and Your Physician" which was published in 2022. Dr. Mahammedi has received numerous awards and honors, including being selected as a semi-finalist for the prestigious Cornelius Dyke Award of the American Society of Neuroradiology (ASNR) 2021, and Best Case Award at the American Institute of Radiologic Pathology (AIRP) in Neuroradiology. In 2014, he was recognized as one of the authors with top-cited articles for his work in the Journal of Thoracic Imaging at the Society of Thoracic Imaging (STR) meeting, where he introduced a new technique for early detection of pulmonary hypertension on CT scans.

  • Lynne Martin, MD

    Lynne Martin, MD

    Clinical Assistant Professor, Radiology

    BioDr. Martin is an interventional radiologist with Stanford Health Care Interventional Radiology. She is also a clinical instructor in the Department of Radiology, Division of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging at Stanford University School of Medicine.

    Dr. Martin specializes in interventional oncology (minimally invasive cancer treatments). She diagnoses and treats venous (vein) disease, including venous occlusion (when a vein becomes narrowed or blocked by nearby structures), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and vascular malformations (abnormal development of blood vessels). She also focuses on the management of cirrhosis (severe scarring of the liver) and portal hypertension (elevated pressure in a large abdominal vein). Additionally, she treats women’s health issues, such as fallopian tube blockages, chronic pelvic pain, pelvic venous disease, and uterine fibroids. She is a specialist provider for patients with HHT and pulmonary AVMs as well as patients with vascular malformations (arterial, venous, venolymphatic).

    Her research interests include treatments for portal vein thrombosis (clotting), liver cancer, and health care disparities. She has also studied intra-arterial corticosteroid treatment for inflammatory bowel disease. In addition, she has explored the use of bronchial artery embolization (blocking a blood vessel) for the treatment of hemoptysis (coughing up blood) in people with cystic fibrosis.

    Dr. Martin twice received the Society of Interventional Oncology (SIO) Scholarship Award. She won first place in SIO’s Artificial Intelligence Hackathon. She has also twice received the Etta Kalin Moskowitz Fund Research Award.

    Dr. Martin has published in peer-reviewed journals, including the Journal of Clinical Medicine, Neuropeptides, and Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology. She has delivered presentations at a number of professional society meetings, including the SIO, the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR), and the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA).

    Dr. Martin is a member of several professional groups, including SIO, SIR, and RSNA. She also serves on committees such as SIO’s Education Committee and Stanford’s Performance Improvement Committee.

  • Tarik F. Massoud, MD, PhD

    Tarik F. Massoud, MD, PhD

    Professor of Radiology (Neuroimaging and Neurointervention)

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy current interests are in molecular and translational imaging of the brain especially in neuro-oncology and cerebrovascular diseases, experimental aspects of neuroimaging, clinical neuroradiology, neuroradiological anatomy, and research education and academic training of radiologists and scientists.

  • Jennifer A McNab

    Jennifer A McNab

    Associate Professor (Research) of Radiology (Radiological Sciences Laboratory)

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research is focused on developing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods that probe brain tissue microstructure. This requires new MRI contrast mechanisms, strategic encoding and reconstruction schemes, physiological monitoring, brain tissue modeling and validation. Applications of these methods include neuronavigation, neurosurgical planning and the development of improved biomarkers for brain development, degeneration, disease and injury.

  • Mahati Mokkarala

    Mahati Mokkarala

    Assistant Professor of Radiology (Body Imaging)

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focus as a new attending will be on evaluating and implementing new technology in the radiology workplace including how technology can benefit private practice and academic radiologists.

    This research focus is based on my current and previous research projects and interests. As an abdominal imaging fellow at the University of Pennsylvania, I worked on projects understanding how to apply spectral CT data in a clinical and research setting. Current projects include determining if spectral CT data can quantify normal organ characteristics. Understanding the age-old question of ‘what is normal’ is essential for determining if spectral CT data can help radiologists identify and characterize pathology.

    Other previous research projects with interventional and diagnostic radiology colleagues at MIR include improving and evaluating the efficacy of multiple embolization agents. Additional diagnostic radiology projects as a resident included optimizing artificial intelligence programs that streamline radiology critical action items and better characterize glioblastoma imaging patterns. All projects had a common theme, focusing on implementing technology that could benefit both clinical and radiology practice and making sure that these tools would be useful for radiologists and other specialists. Radiology is unique because of how essential imaging interpretation is for modern medicine. An academic radiologist should be the leader in both developing and successfully integrating technology in the clinical world.
