Their research focuses on breast metastasis, medical imaging, and diagnostic radiology, with recent work analyzing rare cases of myxoid liposarcoma metastasis to the breast. Imaging characteristics and clinical implications are central to their studies.

In their 2023 publication, Dr. Choi explored the challenges of identifying non-mammary metastases in breast imaging, emphasizing the importance of clinical history and comparative imaging. The case study highlighted the benign-appearing imaging features of metastatic myxoid liposarcoma, which required biopsy for accurate diagnosis.
