Who I am
Dr. Francesco Bruno Tagliaferro
I am a Diagnostic and Interventional Radiologist.
I graduated and specialized in Rome, where I still live and work. In my residency years, I had the need and the opportunity to attend some of the best healthcare organizations in Italy and abroad. All the experiences I've had, all the places I've been, all the people I've met, have been fundamental to my professional and personal growth, and have made me a better doctor and man.
I hope to be able to make all this available to those in need, to always offer the best care.
My Specialty
Diagnostic Radiology is a high-tech medical discipline oriented to the diagnosis of disease through the execution and interpretation of radiological images: CT - MRI - Ultrasound - Conventional Radiology. (Find out more)
Interventional Radiology includes all minimally invasive surgical procedures performed with the guidance of radiological images (CT - Ultrasound - MRI - Fluoroscopy). Interventional Radiology procedures, due to their minimally invasive approach, reduce the impact of the interventions on the body, thus decreasing post-surgical complications and recovery times.

What I do
Radiology is a vast field. Embracing almost all medical specialties, it requires anatomical, physiological, clinical, pharmacological skills, practically of all organs and systems.
To this basic knowledge, Radiologists add specific skills in the sectors that most interest them.
In my case, over the years I decided to further specialize in Men's Health, Cardiovascular and Musculoskeletal Radiology, Musculoskeletal Procedures for the treatment of joint and spinal pain, Extra-vascular Procedures (i.e. minimally invasive interventions on organs such as the liver, kidneys, thyroid, lungs, etc.)
