Who are you, in one plain sentence?
Dr. Ahmad I. Alomari is a pediatric interventional radiologist at Boston Children’s Hospital, Co-Director of the Vascular Anomalies Center, and one of the most published practitioners in the field of image-guided treatment of vascular anomalies in children and adults.
What is your specialty within vascular anomalies?
Interventional radiology — specifically the image-guided, minimally invasive treatment of vascular malformations. Sclerotherapy for venous and lymphatic malformations, embolization for arteriovenous malformations and fistulas, and percutaneous interventional procedures are the primary tools of this specialty. In the context of vascular anomalies, an experienced interventional radiologist is often the practitioner performing the actual treatment after the multidisciplinary team has established a diagnosis and plan. Worth understanding: interventional radiology is a procedural specialty — Dr. Alomari’s role is the intervention itself, not the initial diagnosis or longitudinal management.
Where do you practice and how do I reach you?
Boston Children’s Hospital · Department of Radiology · 300 Longwood Avenue, Boston, MA 02115. Contact through the VAC directly: 617-355-5226 or vascular@childrens.harvard.edu. Dr. Alomari is also available for remote case review through the VAC’s weekly conference. Worth confirming: whether a referral specifically to Dr. Alomari is possible or whether interventional radiology referrals are assigned by the team coordinator.
What makes you notable in this field?
Dr. Alomari’s published record in vascular anomalies is among the most extensive in interventional radiology. He was among the team that described FAVA (Fibro-Adipose Vascular Anomaly) as a previously unrecognized disorder of the limb — a discovery with direct implications for patients who had been misdiagnosed or inadequately treated for years. His work spans Gorham-Stout disease, complex lymphatic anomalies, and the full range of vascular malformation interventions. He holds the P.E. Burrows Chair in Interventional Radiology and Vascular Anomalies at Harvard Medical School.
Worth knowing: Dr. Alomari trained at Jordan University of Science and Technology and completed his fellowship at Boston Children’s Hospital. He has been practicing for over 25 years and has accepted telehealth appointments — worth confirming availability for your specific situation.
