Elena K. Korngold, M.D., FSAR, is a Professor of Diagnostic Radiology and Vice Chair of Clinical Operations at Oregon Health & Science University. Her research focuses on advanced magnetic resonance imaging in oncology, particularly rectal cancer imaging, radiomics, and the differentiation of residual adenocarcinoma from acellular mucin in treated tumor beds. She has contributed to multicenter studies on apparent diffusion coefficient metrics and MRI-based radiomics for treatment response assessment. Dr. Korngold has authored ACR Appropriateness Criteria for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, gastric cancer, and chronic pancreatitis, and has investigated neoadjuvant therapies in resectable rectal cancer. Her work bridges cancer imaging, surgical pathology, and cardiology, shaping evidence-based guidelines in radiological practice.
