Biography

Dr. Choyke obtained his medical degree from Jefferson Medical College and completed his residency in Diagnostic Radiology at Yale-New Haven Hospital. Following an imaging fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania he joined the faculty of Georgetown University and soon thereafter the Diagnostic Radiology Department, Clinical Center, NIH. In June 2004 he started the Molecular Imaging Program within the Center for Cancer Research, NCI.

His research interests include translation of molecular imaging methods into the clinic including MRI, optical and Radionuclide/PET methods. His research includes novel methods of detecting ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, angiogenesis, lymphangiogenesis, cancer cell receptor imaging and treatment, cell tracking, and exploration of unique animal models of cancer.
