Following his residency in radiology and fellowship in pediatric radiology, Vasanawala joined the faculty at Stanford University. During his tenure at the institution, he aimed to speed up MRI scanning and remove the need for anesthesia in children. As such, his research team created kid-sized flexible coils that allow for speedier MRI image capturing. From 2009 until 2017, Vasanawala was named the Tashia and John Morgridge Faculty Scholar in Pediatric Translational Medicine to support his MRI inventions. Following this, Vasanawala was elected to the American Society for Clinical Investigation and American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering.
