The department of radiology provides clinical service to Michigan Medicine, which includes the physically-connected University Hospital, Taubman outpatient center, C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital, the von Voigtlander Women’s Hospital, Frankel Cardiovascular Center, and Rogel Cancer Center on the main campus. As more healthcare continues to move from the hospital to the outpatient environment, our ambulatory care outpatient imaging centers have expanded to nine locations in southeastern Michigan, providing state of the art imaging to our patients closer to home. Our faculty and trainees also provide radiology services to patients at the nearby Ann Arbor Veterans Administration Hospital.
