I have been in academic medicine for over 20 years, specializing in musculoskeletal imaging and intervention. I work closely with the Orthopedic Surgeons at Rothman Institute. Over the years I have written over 90 chapters and written or edited 13 books. I have over 170 scientific publications, as well as over 1000 invited lectures. I am Past President of the Society of Skeletal Radiology.

Trace Orthopedics will transform the treatment of tendon tears. Our device can repair tendons through a needle, percutaneously - without the need for OR, general anesthesia or nerve block. Payers and practices will save money. Meanwhile, since the reimbursement codes for surgical repair apply, physicians will see more revenue. Patients will avoid the OR and return more quickly to work and play.

I co-invented the Morrison Steerable Needle and with Apriomed took the device through FDA to market. It is now sold internationally.

The Society of Skeletal Radiology (SSR) was founded in 1978. It has since grown to over 2000 members, all subspecialty MSK Radiologists. The SSR was created to address the issues of specialty recognition and representation, resident and fellowship training, research in musculoskeletal imaging and continuing education. It is the mission of the Society of Skeletal Radiology to encourage and support the development of expertise in the subspecialty of Musculoskeletal Radiology. The Society of Skeletal Radiology is proud to represent Musculoskeletal Radiology in the United States and Canada and with our membership, is committed to the continual advancement of our science, our teaching and our service.

I served active duty as Chief of Musculoskeletal Radiology at Wilford Hall Medical Center at Lackland AFB in San Antonio, TX. We did not have many resources, so we had to innovate to take care of our patients!
