Ann Leung MD

Ann Leung, MD, is a Professor of Radiology and the Division Chief of Thoracic Imaging at Stanford University Medical Center. Her expertise lies in the application of high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) to diagnose and evaluate thoracic diseases, including interstitial lung diseases and lung nodules. Dr. Leung's work focuses on advancing imaging techniques to enhance diagnostic accuracy and patient care, contributing significantly to the fields of thoracic radiology and interdisciplinary pulmonary medicine.

Dr. Leung is a key contributor to Stanford's Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) Multi-Disciplinary Discussions, providing expert radiologic consultations. Her research includes automated classification of usual interstitial pneumonia and the use of quantitative volumetric texture analysis. Additionally, her studies explore CT imaging's role in managing lung cancers, particularly in understanding their enhancement characteristics through CT and MRI.

Beyond Leung's clinical and research contributions, Dr. Leung is actively involved in medical education and collaboration with specialists in pulmonary and critical care medicine. She plays a crucial role in integrating radiological insights with clinical practices to improve diagnostic pathways and treatment planning for complex thoracic conditions.
