Thomas M. Grist, MD, FACR, received his undergraduate degree in biomedical engineering from Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI, in 1981,
and his doctor of medicine degree from the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, WI, in 1985. He completed his radiology residency
at Duke University in Durham, NC. In 1991, he joined the faculty of the Department of Radiology at the University of Wisconsin in
Madison, WI. He is currently the John H. Juhl Professor of Radiology, Medical Physics and Bioengineering and Chairman of the
Department of Radiology.
Dr. Grist has lectured extensively both nationally and internationally. He is author/co-author of four books, 15 book chapters and 134 peer-reviewed publications. He is an active member in many professional organizations i ncluding ISMRM, RSNA, SCBT/MR, and he is a Fellow of the American Heart Association, ISMRM, and American College of Radiology. His research has resulted in 12 patents.
Dr. Grist is interested in the development and application of magnetic resonance techniques for the evaluation of cardiovascular disorders. Specifically, the cardiovascular MR imaging group at the University of Wisconsin has focused efforts on the development of noninvasive techniques for diagnosing cardiac and vascular disease using magnetic resonance angiography. Specific projects supported by extramural support include the development of time-resolved MRA, morphologic and functional evaluation of renovascular disease, quantification of pressure gradients using MR phase contrast imaging, and the application of hyperpolarized contrast for MRI. All of these projects reflect an interdisciplinary approach to translational imaging research. Dr. Grist’s research extends from the bench to bedside, and relies heavily on multidisciplinary groups to improve human health.
