Payments from drug & device makers
What this record shows
This record is dominated by consulting fees: $996,930 of the $1,502,492 with a category attached, or 66.4%. Stryker accounts for 69.1% of it on its own, with 12 other manufacturers making up the rest. Reporting peaked in 2019 at $419,450 and has fallen 91.6% since, to $35,209 in 2025. Among diagnostic radiology clinicians in MA with any reported payments, this total sits in the top 5% — high for the specialty, which is a reason to read the composition above rather than the number alone.
