His Residency and Fellowship training in Nuclear Medicine and Interventional Radiology were completed at the University of Washington Medical Center in Seattle, WA. Dr. Whitely achieved Top Doc status in SJ Magazine in 2007 and 2008.
Dr. Lin attended University of Illinois, College of Medicine in Chicago, IL and subsequently did his internship at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, NH, his residency at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia, and completed his fellowship training in musculoskeletal radiology at Hospital for Special Surgery, New York, NY.

Digital Radiography now available
Booth Radiology is proud to announce the installation digital radiography at our Woodbury and Washington Township sites.
Digital radiography provides the sharpest images available for all types of x-ray examinations. The digital capability allows us to send your images electronically to your physician. This way, your physician can view your study instantaneously.
This new procedure is often quicker than traditional x-rays, producing a sharper, crisper image for the radiologist to evaluate and for your physician to review.

PET/CT Scanner - Breakthrough in Cancer Care
Sewell, New Jersey: The world’s fastest PET/CT Scanner is now available at Booth Radiology’s Washington Township office. The biograph™ LSO from Siemens Medical is another addition to Booth’s state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging armamentarium. It is one of the most significant medical innovations in cancer detection in the past decade.
Physicians looking for cancer have long relied on CT (computed tomography) scans to detect abnormal masses. PET (positron emission tomography) imaging can find cancer deposits when they are too small to change the size or shape of the body’s organs, (before they can be seen on CT scans). However, PET scans are not as good as CT scans for pointing out the precise location and size of the cancer deposit, (which is important for directing biopsy, surgery, or other treatment). “When a PET scan can be directly fused onto the CT scan done at the same time and with the patient in the same position, the ability to accurately detect cancer and avoid false positives or negatives is markedly increased,” said Markus Whitley, M.D., Division of Nuclear Medicine at Booth Radiology. “Now combined, the biograph LSO PET/CT scanner will deliver technological advancements in diagnostic imaging here to for unavailable to oncology patients in Southern New Jersey. Our patients will receive the best, fastest and most accurate cancer imaging available anywhere,” he adds.
A patient’s fight against cancer has never looked brighter with the ability to tailor individual patient care management that is detailed and concise. Whole body studies, which combine the two previous separate and longer procedures, can be accomplished in as little as 30 minutes.
“Booth Radiology is proud to deliver this new level of diagnostic imaging for the staging, planning, treatment and monitoring of malignant disease in the oncology patient’s fight for life,” comments Michael Ramer, M.D., President of Booth Radiology.
