QVI
Staff
is
The QVI
Difference

Here we are enjoying some time at the
beach.
QVI easily has the most knowlegeable and
experienced staff in the state of Florida and possibly the
nation. We specialize in vascular testing, and it is all
we do. This makes us the clear experts in all areas of
vascular disease and vascular testing. Our staff averages
over 15 years experience in ultrasound
testing.

Kathleen
McCloskey, RT, RDMS, RVT
Kathleen
completed specialized training in radiology technology and
in addition has extensive experience in various radiological
special procedures. Early on in her training however, she
was drawn to Ultrasound and in fact, has three different
ultrasound registries. Vascular testing emerged as her
favorite and has been her primary focus for over a decade.
She is extremely talented and knowledgeable in the abdominal
vasculature, especially renal artery evaluation. Her
experience in special procedures has allowed her to easily
extend those skills into venous interventional procedures.
We all agree, Kathleen is the best!
