Advanced Cardiovascular Imaging Fellowship

The Advanced Cardiovascular Imaging Fellowship at Advocate Aurora St. Luke’s Medical Center is a one-year non-ACGME accredited program within the Division of Cardiology. This one-year program primarily focuses on advanced echocardiography (ie. Interventional echo) and cardiac computed tomography training with additional opportunities in Nuclear (SPECT/PET) and Cardiac MRI imaging that can be tailored to individual career goals. Our robust cardiovascular imaging department offers exposure to wide spectrum of pathology, state of the art imaging equipment, and a comprehensive multidisciplinary training.
