Virtually everyone's life has been affected by cardiovascular disease (CVD) in some way. There are no routine community-based tests to identify asymptomatic CVD due to current tests being invasive, expensive, time-consuming or high radiation exposure. A low cost, very low radiation test from existing machines used for osteoporosis screening can assess a measure of asymptomatic CVD. This fellowship seeks to develop this test for community-based screening strategies.

几乎每个人的生活都在某种程度上受到心血管疾病（CVD）的影响。由于目前的测试是侵入性的，昂贵的，耗时的或高辐射暴露的，因此没有常规的基于社区的测试来识别无症状的CVD。一个低成本，非常低的辐射测试，从现有的机器用于骨质疏松症筛查可以评估无症状心血管疾病的措施。该研究金旨在为基于社区的筛查策略开发这种测试。
