Ultra-High Field MRI Tumor Mapping
The BioMedical Engineering and Imaging Institute (BMEII) research group has an NIH funded program that develops newer techniques to accurately map tumors and anatomy using ultra-high field 7T MRI. This will allow for more precise and targeted surgical resections-ultimately for better patient outcomes.

Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery
The Endoscopic Skull Base Surgery research group focuses on the clinical implementation of stereotactic and 3D navigation for minimally invasive skull base and pituitary tumor surgery. The team researches unique visual-evoked-potential (VEP) neuro-physiological monitoring to monitor visual pathways during neurosurgical tumor surgery to provide for improved clinical outcome.

Physicians and scientists on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai often interact with pharmaceutical, device, biotechnology companies, and other outside entities to improve patient care, develop new therapies and achieve scientific breakthroughs. In order to promote an ethical and transparent environment for conducting research, providing clinical care and teaching, Mount Sinai requires that salaried faculty inform the School of their outside financial relationships.

Dr. Shrivastava has not yet completed reporting of Industry relationships.

Mount Sinai's faculty policies relating to faculty collaboration with industry are posted on our website. Patients may wish to ask their physician about the activities they perform for companies.
