Theodore Henderson, MD, PhD

Dr. Henderson has a PhD in Developmental Neurobiology and an MD, both from Saint Louis University in St. Louis. He has training in Radiology and is certified in nuclear neuroimaging. He is Board Certified in Psychiatry after training at Washington University in St. Louis and the University of Colorado. He has previously been medical director of a commercial neuroimaging center and now is President of an independent neuroimaging consulting firm. Dr. Henderson regularly lectures on the interface between neuroimaging and the fields of Neurology and Psychiatry. He has extensive experience in the use of SPECT neuroimaging in clinical practice and in ongoing research studies. He has published over 30 papers and book chapters.

He has served as an officer on the Brain Imaging Council Board of the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI). He presents on neuroimaging and gave a SNMMI CME webcast on neuroimaging in dementia and the Parkinsonian syndromes. Dr. Henderson has focused his attention on the importance of quantitative analysis of neuroimaging and on moving neuroimaging more into routine clinical practice, which has lead him to chair symposia at both the SNMMI and the American Psychiatric Association Annual Meetings.

With Dr. Larry Morries, he has formed the Neuro-Laser Foundation (www.tbi.care) which is committed to developing treatments for TBI and making them available to Veterans and First-Responders who cannot otherwise afford treatment.

Dr. Henderson is committed to excellent care of patients – both with psychiatric and with neurological disorders. He brings a powerful combination of expertise in psychopharmacology, neurobiology, neuroimaging, and human psychology to every patient’s situation.
