Clinical Responsibilities
Fascinated by the pivotal role diagnostic imaging can make in the care of acutely ill and injured patients, Dr. Bernstein had pursued a fellowship in trauma and critical care imaging at the University of Maryland's Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore. Emphasis was placed on a multi-modality approach (XR, CT, MR) to the diagnosis of critically ill traumatized patients.Dr. Bernstein has developed a particular interest in the ever-growing role of CT, and now multi-detector CT, in assessing stable blunt and penetrating trauma victims. He has complied a series of trauma protocols for the Bellevue Emergency CT scanner and patients can now get a complete diagnostic workup in just a single visit to the CT scanner. Most of his interest lies in cervical and thoracolumbar spine injury evaluation, and the CT diagnosis of vascular injury including aortic injury.
