医生介绍


William Henry Westra博士是约翰霍普金斯医院、约翰霍普金斯医院大学医学院。头颈病理学实验室主任，肿瘤病理学教授，皮肤科副教授，肿瘤学教授，耳鼻喉—头颈外科教授。现就职于该医院Sidney Kimmel 综合 癌症中心，主要从事癌症病理学的研究。
1995年Dr. Westra创建了该医院的头部颈部病理学实验室，从这个时候他开始联合心肺病理学实验室进行有关分子生物学检查、诊断头颈部癌症的临床研究试验研究。许多非常有前景的跨学科临床试验在他的主持和指导下，顺利进行。他还开启了实验室的对外诊断服务，为病人带来早期治疗和确诊癌症的机会。
William Henry Westra于佛罗里达医学院获得临床病理学博士学位，在约翰霍普金斯医院完成了他的住院医师工作。他在纪念斯隆凯特琳癌症研究中心从事研究员工作，并在之后返回约翰霍普金斯医院在外科病理科担任首席临床研究员。
Dr. Westra研究兴趣主要包括分子基因学技术在早期诊断头颈部癌症的应用。
Dr. Westra是《外科病理解剖学》合著者之一，这本教材详细介绍了复杂的头部、颈部肿瘤切除术评估的最新方法和技术。他主持和指导美国国家卫生研究所资助的“卓越研究专门项目”。

分子基因技术的应用对于早期头部、颈部癌症的诊断和检查，头部和颈部癌症的分子遗传学进展，甲状腺肿瘤的形成

简介


William Henry Westra博士是约翰霍普金斯医院、约翰霍普金斯医院大学医学院。头颈病理学实验室主任，肿瘤病理学教授，皮肤科副教授，肿瘤学教授，耳鼻喉—头颈外科教授。现就职于该医院Sidney Kimmel 综合 癌症中心，主要从事癌症病理学的研究。
1995年Dr. Westra创建了该医院的头部颈部病理学实验室，从这个时候他开始联合心肺病理学实验室进行有关分子生物学检查、诊断头颈部癌症的临床研究试验研究。许多非常有前景的跨学科临床试验在他的主持和指导下，顺利进行。他还开启了实验室的对外诊断服务，为病人带来早期治疗和确诊癌症的机会。
William Henry Westra于佛罗里达医学院获得临床病理学博士学位，在约翰霍普金斯医院完成了他的住院医师工作。他在纪念斯隆凯特琳癌症研究中心从事研究员工作，并在之后返回约翰霍普金斯医院在外科病理科担任首席临床研究员。
Dr. Westra研究兴趣主要包括分子基因学技术在早期诊断头颈部癌症的应用。
Dr. Westra是《外科病理解剖学》合著者之一，这本教材详细介绍了复杂的头部、颈部肿瘤切除术评估的最新方法和技术。他主持和指导美国国家卫生研究所资助的“卓越研究专门项目”。
