Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology
University of Zagreb School of Medicine
In the Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, comprehensive radiological diagnostics and minimally invasive treatments are carried out under the imaging guidance using optimal imaging equipment. With the help of European funding, we also equipped the Department with new radiological equipment in 2023, including 128-slice and 384-slice dual-source MSCT devices, 3T MRI and two angio-suites.
The Department is a teaching base for the University of Zagreb School of Medicine for students of the integrated undergraduate and graduate study of medicine, university integrated undergraduate and graduate study of medicine in English, and the University of Applied Health Sciences for students of the undergraduate study of radiological technology. Postgraduate studies of the UZSM in the field of clinical radiology are also organized in the Department for residents in radiology.
All radiologists in the department participate in the activities of multidisciplinary teams at hospital level.
Our staff is currently involved in several international research projects, including:
Horizon 2020 “RADIOVAL – International Clinical Validation of Radiomics Artificial Intelligence for Breast Cancer Treatment Planning”. The School of Medicine is a part of the research consortium, the local researchers being Prof. Boris Brkljačić MD, PhD, Associate Prof. Gordana Ivanac, MD, PhD and Eugen Divjak, MD, PhD.
EU-JUST-CT – European coordinated action on improving justification of computed tomography, project number EC ENER/21/NUCL/SI2.844392, led by Prof. Boris Brkljačić, MD, PhD.

The Department was also involved in several completed research projects funded by the Croatian Science Foundation.
The Department consists of five divisions – units divided according to the individual activities and subspecializations in radiology:
- Division of Neuroradiology and Radiology of the Head and Neck
- Division of Thoracic, Hepatobiliary, and Gastrointestinal Radiology
- Division of Musculoskeletal and Urogenital Radiology
- Division of Interventional and Cardiac Radiology
- Division of Ultrasound and Breast Radiology
