Brian Boitnott
Ph.D. Student in Biomedical Physics, admitted Autumn 2023
BioI am currently a Biomedical Physics PhD candidate in the Department of Radiology. In the two years prior to Stanford, I was at MIT Lincoln Laboratory, where I worked on airborne remote sensing systems and was on the core team developing a laser-ultrasound system for medical imaging.
My interests revolve around health technology and perception. I started in neuroscience, studying attention and cognitive control, and now work on designing systems and algorithms for sensing and processing biomedical signals. My broader interests are at the intersection between emerging technology innovation, translation, and long-term innovation strategy. -

Robert Downey Boutin
Clinical Professor, Radiology
BioDr. Boutin works clinically as a musculoskeletal radiologist interpreting a broad array of diagnostic imaging examinations, most frequently MRI, CT, sonography, and radiography.
The clinical focus for Dr. Boutin is MRI and CT of joints, bones, and muscles, as well as adding value to routine radiology exams by translating advancements from fields of artificial intelligence and imaging informatics. These advancements include enhancing routine imaging exams to help promote physical function, quality of life, and healthspan in our patients. Because the worldwide population of people > 60 years of age is projected to double by 2050, there is a crucial need for improvements in the accurate and efficient management of derangements associated with biological aging, including osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and adiposity.
Dr. Boutin was introduced to orthopaedics at an early age by his father and older brother -- both orthopaedists. After earning undergraduate and graduate degrees at Stanford University, Dr. Boutin completed advanced fellowship training in Musculoskeletal Imaging at the University of California, San Diego, and worked on the faculty at Harvard Medical School. Core professional values include a commitment to outstanding quality, compassion, safety, and integrity.
Dr. Boutin is a leader in musculoskeletal imaging. He is the President of the Society of Academic Bone Radiologists and serves on the Appropriateness Criteria Panel for the American College of Radiology. He is an Assistant Editor at the American Journal of Roentgenology (AJR), and recently served as the Chair of the Musculoskeletal Imaging Program Committee for the largest medical meeting in the world (RSNA).
He is a frequent invited lecturer for continuing medical education courses, such as those at the annual meetings of the Radiological Society of North America, the International Skeletal Society, and the American Roentgen Ray Society. He also lectures regularly at the international Orthopaedic Imaging course in Davos, Switzerland. -

Pere Canals
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiology
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI have deep interest in studying how to leverage state-of-the-art AI advancements in the field of computer vision to develop applications with a practical use in day-to-day workflows in stroke treatment and other neurovascular diseases. For example, I want to study how we can use foundation models in 3D imaging to unlock novel applications with a real impact on stroke care. My main expertise has resided in understanding how complex vascular anatomies impact endovascular treatment in stroke.

Carlos Castillo Passi
Postdoctoral Scholar, Radiological Sciences Laboratory
BioCarlos Castillo-Passi began his academic journey at Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile (PUC), where he earned both a degree and an MSc in Electrical Engineering in 2018. He then pursued a PhD in Biological and Medical Engineering through a joint program between PUC and King’s College London (KCL), completing it with maximum distinction in 2024. His research focused on the design of low-field cardiac MRI sequences using open-source MRI simulations. In 2023, his work on open-source MRI simulations was highlighted by the editor of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (MRM). Furthermore, his application of this work to low-field cardiac MRI earned him the Early Career Award in Basic Science from the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR) in 2024. In addition to his research, Carlos is an active member of JuliaHealth, contributing to the development of high-performance, reproducible tools for health and medicine. In 2025, he joined Stanford University as a postdoctoral researcher, where he continues his work in cardiac MRI and open-source technologies.

Stephanie Tzu-Ying Chang
Assistant Professor of Radiology
BioDr. Stephanie Chang is an Assistant Professor in Radiology at Stanford University School of Medicine, Section Chief in Abdominal Imaging, and Interim Director of Diagnostic Radiology in the Department of Radiology at VA Palo Alto.
Dr. Chang’s research program aims to utilize state-of-the-art diagnostic technology to non-invasively detect abdominal diseases that predispose or lead to cancer since the most beneficial and cost-effective cancer imaging occurs in the screening/early detection phase.
Currently, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) are leading worldwide causes of end-stage liver disease and liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC). To determine the optimal multimodality screening and diagnostic pathway, Dr. Chang leads prospective research studies at VA Palo Alto comparing blood-based and imaging-based diagnostic tests – the Fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) Index, the Enhanced Liver Fibrosis (ELF) test, vibration controlled transient elastography (VCTE), ultrasound point shear wave elastography (US pSWE), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) elastography – among high-risk veterans with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes to compare relative performance and costs/benefits.
To improve detection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) among patients with end-stage liver disease (cirrhosis), Dr. Chang also serves as a member of the VA National Radiology Working Group and radiology local site investigator at VA Palo Alto for a multicenter VA research study CSP #2023 PREventing liver cancer Mortality through Imaging with Ultrasound vs. MRI (PREMIUM STUDY) comparing US and MRI to determine optimal screening strategies for hepatocellular carcinoma.
While MRI has the overall highest sensitivity and specificity for many diseases and contains additional biological/prognostic information not obtainable via other imaging methods, the utility of MRI as a powerful non-invasive screening tool has been hampered by its limitations in access, time, and cost. Dr. Chang is interested in significantly shortening MRI exam times to accelerate MRI throughput, decrease patient discomfort, and reduce costs. To accomplish this goal, Dr. Chang is interested in improving pulse sequences to shorten MRI acquisition times while maintaining or increasing diagnostic quality. In addition, Dr. Chang is interested in novel MRI techniques to improve disease detection and staging. -
