About Katherine Meg Richman, MD

Katherine (Meg) Richman, MD, is a board-certified diagnostic radiologist who specializes in body imaging, particularly women's body imaging. She performs both hysterosalpingograms (HSG) and sonohysterograms (SHG) to look for causes of women's infertility and gynecological issues, such as bleeding.

Her research focuses on understanding the impact of HSG on fertility. She is interested in improving diagnostic radiology techniques for predicting a women's prognosis for becoming pregnant and carrying a pregnancy to term.
