About Bradley B. Pua, M.D.
As Division Chief of Interventional Radiology, my work sits at the intersection of precision medicine, system-wide innovation, and patient-centered care. Interventional Radiology continues to evolve as one of the most dynamic fields in medicine—offering minimally invasive, image-guided therapies that improve outcomes and transform recovery.My personal mission is to critically reimagine how care is delivered across sites and systems. I’m deeply committed to integrating advanced imaging modalities, augmented reality technologies, and federated data infrastructure to guide more targeted treatments, increase diagnostic certainty, and expand equitable access—especially in thoracic oncology, vascular anomalies, and under-resourced spaces. Every workflow we optimize, every care pathway we refine, and every mentorship we foster contributes to one goal: improving quality of life while shaping the future of complex disease management.

Chief, Division of Interventional Radiology Director, Lung Cancer Screening Program Director, Radiology Consultation Services
Dr. Bradley Pua is a nationally recognized leader in Interventional Radiology, known for advancing multidisciplinary care, early cancer detection, and procedural innovation. He earned his B.S. in Chemistry from New York University (NYU) and completed his M.D. at NYU School of Medicine. After three years of surgical residency at NYU Medical Center, he trained in Interventional Radiology through a fellowship at NewYork-Presbyterian/91Â鶹¾«Æ· and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. He completed his diagnostic radiology residency at Cornell, serving as Chief Resident.
Dr. Pua’s clinical practice includes a wide range of image-guided therapies such as embolization, stent placement, tumor ablation, biopsy, and vascular access. His focus areas include pediatric interventions and minimally invasive cancer therapy, with particular expertise in thoracic tumors.
He co-founded a multidisciplinary vascular anomalies team that provides coordinated, longitudinal care for patients with hemangiomas, arteriovenous malformations, venous anomalies, and lymphatic disorders.
As Director of the Lung Cancer Screening Program, Dr. Pua has streamlined diagnostic and therapeutic pathways for pulmonary nodules, accelerating access to curative treatment. He leads and collaborates on multiple clinical trials focused on minimally invasive lung tumor treatment, utilizing advanced techniques such as radiofrequency, microwave, cryoablation, and pulsed electric field ablation.
A champion of emerging technology, Dr. Pua integrates augmented reality (AR) solutions into procedural planning and image-guided interventions. His work explores how AR overlays can enhance precision, safety, and outcomes across interventional oncology and complex vascular treatments.
