DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We seek NIH support for a new training program in cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) and computed tomography (CT) research. The goal of this Program is to train future leaders of cardiac imaging science. We understand there are no comparable training programs that combine exposure to both MR and CT, two of the most promising technologies for imaging of the heart. The training program is based in the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) cardiac MR and CT program, a joint cardiology - radiology program that greatly enhances collaboration. The program trains MD and PhD post-doctoral scientists in modem imaging science with emphasis on novel development and translational research. Conducting research in these areas requires the participation of experts in cardiology, radiology, physics, and imaging sciences. Translation of these approaches to patient care requires well-designed clinical and outcomes research. Cardiac imaging is critical to the practice of cardiology today. Training basic science and clinical investigators in cardiac imaging research is imperative to advancing diagnosis and therapy for patients. The strengths of the Program are an outstanding faculty pursuing research at the cutting-edge of cardiovascular imaging science, a rich and broad didactic curriculum including an innovative Research Methods course, mentored research training and career planning. Extensive collaboration between the faculty, trainees, and accomplished investigators throughout the MGH, Harvard Medical School, and MIT communities, further increase the Program's scientific impact. This broad exposure, strengthened by a motivating environment with an emphasis on individual scientific excellence and committed mentorship, creates the conditions for the successful training of leaders in the use of these important technologies in cardiology.

描述（由申请人提供）： 我们寻求 NIH 支持心脏磁共振 (MR) 和计算机断层扫描 (CT) 研究的新培训计划。 该计划的目标是培养心脏成像科学的未来领导者。 我们知道，目前还没有类似的培训计划能够将 MR 和 CT 这两种最有前途的心脏成像技术结合起来。 该培训项目以马萨诸塞州总医院 (MGH) 心脏 MR 和 CT 项目为基础，这是一个心脏病学-放射学联合项目，可极大地增强协作。 该项目培养现代成像科学领域的医学博士和博士后科学家，重点是新颖的开发和转化研究。在这些领域进行研究需要心脏病学、放射学、物理学和成像科学专家的参与。 将这些方法转化为患者护理需要精心设计的临床和结果研究。 心脏成像对于当今的心脏病学实践至关重要。培训心脏成像研究方面的基础科学和临床研究人员对于推进患者的诊断和治疗至关重要。 该项目的优势在于拥有从事心血管影像科学前沿研究的杰出教师、丰富而广泛的教学课程，包括创新的研究方法课程、指导性研究培训和职业规划。 麻省总医院、哈佛医学院和麻省理工学院的教员、学员和卓有成就的研究人员之间的广泛合作，进一步增强了该项目的科学影响力。 这种广泛的接触，加上强调个人科学卓越和忠诚指导的激励环境，为成功培训领导者使用这些重要的心脏病学技术创造了条件。
