  Steven G. Meranze, M.D.
Clinical Research Description
Steven Meranze completed his Interventional Radiology fellowship training at the Hospital of University of Pennsylvania in 1984, and served on faculty until 1990 where he practiced with a strong emphasis in gastro-intestinal interventions. He is currently the section chief of Interventional Radiology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Dr. Meranze is a Fellow in the Society of Interventional Radiology where he serves on multiple committees. He is a member of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) and the American Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association (AHPBA). He has served as a chairman and moderator during programs involving the interventional treatment of liver tumors and has co-authored publications on chemoembolization of liver tumors.

His current clinical and research interests focus on the treatment of primary and metastatic liver malignancies through either percutaneous or endovascular regional therapies and is principal investigator on an IRB approved data repository to track treatment efficacy and quality of life in patients receiving these types of therapies. Dr. Meranze has participated as a co-investigator in federally funded protocols involving imaging and treating GI malignancies. He is principal investigator on V.I.C.C. phase II protocols evaluating the efficacy and toxicity of selective internal radiation therapy (SIRT) using yttrium-90 labeled microspheres in patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma and malignant neuro-endocrine tumors.
