Assistant Professor of Medical Imaging, University of Toronto
Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre
Teaching Philosophy
Neurointervention is high-stakes work that hinges on confident, accurate diagnostic reading. I want trainees to understand the why behind the imaging — the anatomy, the physiology, the failure points — so they can think clearly under pressure, not just pattern-match.
About
Dr. Anish Kapadia is a diagnostic and interventional neuroradiologist at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Medical Imaging at the University of Toronto, and an Affiliate Scientist with the Physical Sciences platform of Sunnybrook Research Institute. He practises at the Centre for Neurovascular Intervention at Sunnybrook — a world-leading neurovascular program — and serves on the medical advisory committee for CSF Leaks Canada. His clinical focus spans acute stroke intervention, intracranial aneurysms, blunt cerebrovascular injury, and CSF leaks; his research investigates imaging biomarkers in subarachnoid hemorrhage, CSF dynamics, and the role of vascular dysfunction and CSF clearance in dementia.
