Bachir Taouli, MD, MS, is Professor of Radiology and Medicine in the Body Imaging Section (Department of Radiology) and the Translational and Molecular Imaging Institute (TMII) at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York. After completing medical school and Radiology Residency in Paris VI University (France) in 2000, he joined the UCSF Department of Radiology for a research fellowship and post-doctoral clinical training. He then joined the NYU Department of Radiology where he worked for 6 years and where he developed clinical applications of advanced MRI techniques applied to liver, kidney and prostate diseases, including diffusion and perfusion imaging and spectroscopy. He joined the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in 2009, where he is currently the director of Body MRI and Cancer Imaging in the Department of Radiology and TMII. Dr Taouli has been named vice-chair for translational research in April 2017. Dr. Taouli is a clinician scientist with particular expertise in the application of advanced MRI sequences applied to diffuse liver disease/liver cancer and abdominal and pelvic malignancies, including prostate cancer.
