Internal Medicine
Dr. Barry Rosenbloom received his Bachelor of Arts, Cum Laude, from the City University of New York, Hunter College, and his Medical Degree, Summa Cum Laude, from State University of New York, Downstate Medical Center. He served his internship and residency in Internal Medicine at Harbor General /UCLA Medical Center, where he subsequently completed a fellowship in Medical Oncology and Hematology. Dr. Rosenbloom still maintains a Clinical Professorship in Medicine at UCLA.

MRI
The Comprehensive Gaucher Treatment Center works in conjunction with Mink Radiologic Imaging to ensure that optimal MRI and X-Ray studies are obtained. Their state-of-the-art technology and equipment enables them to provide us with volumetric measurements of the liver and spleen – a crucial component of a proper Gaucher assessment (yet something that is often unavailable at even the most well-known hospitals and academic institutions). In addition, the radiologists at Mink Radiologic Imaging have expertise in evaluating films obtained on patients with Gaucher disease. They are located at 8670 Wilshire Blvd, Suite 101, Beverly Hills, CA 90211. Complimentary valet parking is available on the Williaman side of the building. To visit their website, go to www.minkrad.com.
Radiology
Radiological exams are an essential tool for the monitoring of disease status in Gaucher patients, providing insight into the degree of organ and bony involvement. Ideally, radiological exams should be performed at qualified imaging centers that regularly evaluate Gaucher patients and staff radiologists who are familiar with Gaucher disease and its presentation.
X-Rays

Joint Replacement
Bone and joint pain are also common symptoms of Gaucher disease. The pain is often generalized, likely caused by an inflammatory response to the presence of Gaucher cells, but may also be very intense and localized. This severe bone pain – referred to as a “bone crisis” – occurs when the Gaucher cells accumulate to such a degree that normal blood flow is disrupted, thereby cutting off the oxygen supply. (A “heart attack of the bone.”) Long-term restriction of blood flow may result in necrosis (cell death) of the bone, leading to permanent bone damage, immobility, and the need for joint replacement surgery. Treatment with enzyme replacement therapy may help to reduce, or even eliminate, episodes of bone pain and bone crises.

Lesions
Manifestations of GD including marrow infiltration, osteopenia, avascular necrosis, infarction, lyitic lesions, Erlenmeyer Flask Deformity, new fractures and an overall bone assessment.
