Cardiovascular Imaging Fellowship

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

The Cardiovascular Imaging Fellowship Training Program is a non-ACGME, Texas Medical Board (TMB) accredited training program approved in 2010. The program includes a PGY7–PGY8 track for those who have completed a Cardiovascular Disease fellowship and wish to gain additional imaging training and reach Level III COCATS requirements.




We have multiple imaging modality tracks: Echocardiography (1 yr), Cardiac MRI (1 yr), Nuclear Cardiology & CT Angiography (1 yr), CT/PET (1 yr), or a two-year Multi-Modality program that is flexible. Research participation is required for the two-year program.

CARDIOVASCULAR IMAGING TRACKS

Training Options:
