Bradley B. Pua, M.D.

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/Weill Cornell 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.
