Stanford’s Translational Biomedical Imaging Instrumentation (TBI2) Training Program

This multidisciplinary predoctoral training program will train the next generation of researchers and inventors of biomedical imaging technology. Trainees will gain expertise in multiple medical imaging modalities, rigorous and reproducible experimental design, and translational applications. Trainees that complete our training program will have a unique skill set that fulfills a distinct national need for researchers and leaders with expertise in advanced biomedical imaging instrumentation.

Collaborative Research: SCH: Quantifying Cardiac Performance by Measuring Myofiber Strain with Routine MRI

The objectives of this proposal are: 1) Computing myofiber strains in healthy volunteers from MRI data routinely acquired in the clinic; 2) Quantify patient specific uncertainty in myofiber strain predictions based on imaging data noise and model assumptions. 3) Characterize cardiac function in patients affected by aortic stenosis by measuring myofiber strains; 4) Accelerate transition to practice by deploying the proposed framework as a cloud computing platform.

Using Atrial Mechanics to Identify Fibrosis in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation

We propose to use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of atrial mechanics to identify localized fibrosis and hypothesize that attenuated mechanics provide a robust measure of atrial fibrosis.
