Dr. Daniel Mandell is a neuroradiologist at the Toronto Western Hospital and an Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto. He received a B.Sc. (Hon) with high distinction from the University of Toronto in 2000, and an M.D. from McMaster University in 2003. He completed a diagnostic radiology residency at the University of Toronto in 2009 and became a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada that year.
Dr. Mandell then completed a two-year neuroradiology fellowship at the University of Toronto where he was Chief Fellow. He pursued research training concurrently, and received a PhD from the University of Toronto in 2013 for his work on functional magnetic resonance imaging of cerebrovascular disease. Dr. Mandell was the 2nd Canadian radiologist to graduate from the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons Clinician Investigator Program, and the 1st Canadian recipient of the American Society of Neuroradiology Scholar Award in neuroradiology research.
His main research interest is in the development of novel imaging techniques for the diagnosis of cerebrovascular disease, and elucidation of underlying mechanisms of disease. His recent work has focused on vessel wall imaging, and on the relationship between microinfarcts and brain aging.
