Nikita Consul

Nikita Consul serves as a Clinical Assistant Professor of Radiology in the Medical School at the University of Michigan, specializing in Abdominal Radiology since 2023. Her clinical and research activities focus on advancing diagnostic imaging techniques for abdominal pathologies through multi-institutional collaborations.

Educational background:

• B.S. in Chemical Engineering and Biology, MIT (2013)
• MD, Columbia University College of Physicians & Surgeons (2017)
• Diagnostic Radiology Residency, Baylor College of Medicine (2022)
• Body Imaging Fellowship, Massachusetts General Hospital (2023)

Her research integrates pancreatic imaging, genitourinary radiology, and advanced MRI/CT techniques to improve diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes. Current projects investigate low-field MRI applications, post-bariatric surgery complications, and imaging biomarkers for pancreatic cancer survival prediction, emphasizing evidence-based clinical implementation.

Recent publication analysis (2023-2025) reveals consistent output across high-impact journals with strong emphasis on abdominal imaging (75% of publications), pancreatic disease (50%), and technical innovation (37.5%). Her work demonstrates increasing collaboration density with institutions including MGH, Columbia, and Baylor.

Mentoring and research:

• Available to mentor students and residents
• Active in multi-institutional research networks
• Contributes to radiology education through textbook authorship and journal editorials
• Focuses on clinically translatable imaging research

Dr. Consul operates within the Abdominal Radiology section of Michigan Medicine's comprehensive Radiology Department, participating in both clinical service and academic initiatives that bridge diagnostic imaging with patient care outcomes.
