    Dr. Shirley Chou is a breast imaging radiologist who evaluates breast-related symptoms and detects and diagnoses breast cancer using imaging tools, including mammography, ultrasound, and MRI. She is a clinical expert at interpreting screening, diagnostic, and cancer-staging breast imaging examinations, and at performing breast imaging-guided procedures, such as tissue sampling.

    Her academic interests center around advancing biomedical imaging science to improve the health outcomes of those presenting with breast concerns, who are at elevated breast cancer risk, and who are diagnosed with breast cancer. Her academic passions also include recruiting and training future generations of clinically excellent radiologists.

    Dr. Chou earned her medical degree from the Chicago Medical School at Rosalind Franklin University. She completed a diagnostic radiology residency at the University of Washington, followed by a breast imaging fellowship at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston. Upon completion of her fellowship, she became faculty of the Massachusetts General Hospital radiology department, during which time she earned an MPH in Clinical Effectiveness at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and served in various leadership roles before joining the radiology faculty at UCSF.
