Clinical Locations

  • Gabriel Fine, MD is an assistant professor of Radiology and Imaging Sciences in the section of Vascular and Interventional Radiology at the University of Utah School of Medicine. Dr. Fine has a broad and active interest in minimally invasive treatments offered through the specialty of interventional radiology with a particular emphasis on interventional oncology. He completed his Bachelor of Arts in Neuroscience at Carleton College and medical school and residency at the University of Washington School of Medicine. During medical school, he also completed a two year cardiovascular research fellowship at Brigham and Women’s hospital and Massachusetts General hospital through the Sarnoff Cardiovascular Research Foundation. Following his residency, he completed his interventional radiology fellowship at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center/New York Presbyterian Hospital.

    Dr. Fine actively pursues opportunities to improve patient outcomes through optimized clinical care and translational research. An area of particular interest and focus relates to understanding biological processes and therapies, including our ability to harness the immune system to improve treatment efficacies and reduce toxicities. He has been an invited speaker and moderator at international conferences and has multiple publications and abstracts. Dr. Fine has received several honors recognizing his medical and research contributions. Some of his honors include induction into the Sigma Xi Scientific Research Society, membership in the Alpha Omega Alpha Medical Honor Society, the Frederick A. Mann Endowed Award, and the Best Junior Faculty/Visiting Scholar Presentation award at the 28thAnnual Utah Center for Advanced Imaging Research (UCAIR) symposium.



    Most importantly, Dr. Fine strives to care for his patients the way he would want a member of his own family to be treated - with compassion, sensitivity, attention to detail, and the best possible clinical care. He works to keep his patients well-informed and help them participate and navigate their healthcare options and decisions.
