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.

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. -

Judy Nguyen, MD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Radiology - Rad/Nuclear Medicine
BioI am originally from San Diego, California where I attended medical school and did a surgical internship at UCSD. While there, I was exposed to the field of Nuclear Medicine and became fascinated by molecular imaging and the burgeoning field of theragnostics. I chose the Nuclear Medicine residency program at Stanford because it is one of the premier molecular imaging programs in the world, where some of the best known physicians and scientists in the field are located. Situated in Silicon Valley and rooted in a culture of collaboration, Stanford reaps the benefits from being at the intersection of technology, innovation, engineering and science to produce ground breaking research that continually pushes the imagination and limits of Nuclear Medicine. I am honored to be able to pursue my clinical interests and further my career in this environment.
