Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Cardiac Tissue

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Cardiac Tissue
Advisor in Munich: Tobias Benz
Advisor in Boston: Prof. Nezafat (Harvard University)
Location: Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA

Abstract

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an important technique in the assessment of cardiac diseases such as, for example, myocardial inflammation or myocardial diffuse fibrosis. The student will have the opportunity to explore imaging sequences for cardiac tissue characterization and develop novel imaging sequences that can improve image-based measurements.

The exact research project will be planned in detail, once a suitable candidate has been found.

Requirements

  • Willingness to move to Boston for the duration of the research project (~6 months), eligible for J-1 student visa
  • Familiar with image processing
  • Good in programming and math
  • Specific knowledge on MRI would be an advantage but is not required

Contact

  • Please first contact Tobias Benz
  • Reza Nezafat, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Medicine,Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA. rnezafat@bidmc.harvard.edu
