Suresh K. Mukherji, M.D., M.B.A., FACR received his M. D. degree from Georgetown University (1987) and M.B.A. from the University of Michigan (2013). He completed his radiology residency at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School in 1992. He was a Neuroradiology Fellow, with emphasis on head and neck imaging, at the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida from 1992-1994. His first faculty position was at the University of North Carolina from 1994-2001. He was then recruited as the Division Director of Neuroradiology at the University of Michigan in 2001 where he became a tenured Professor of Radiology, Radiation Oncology, Otolaryngology Head Neck Surgery.

Dr. Mukherji is a recognized authority in Head & Neck and Neuroradiology and has been an active contributor to the neuroradiology literature by authoring over 400 scientific manuscripts and book chapters and has written or edited 13 textbooks. He has been an invited speaker on nearly 400 occasions. His primary interests have been focused on investigating emerging metabolic and physiologic imaging techniques to evaluate head and neck cancer and to differentiate recurrent tumors from post-therapeutic changes in previously treated patients. These technologies include imaging with fluorodeoxyglucose analogs imaged with prototype Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography, Gamma Cameras, standard PET, and CT-PET. Other metabolic and physiologic imaging techniques he has investigated include Thallium-201, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, CT perfusion, and CT spectral imaging.
