DESCRIPTION (Applicant's Description): The Postgraduate Program in Radiological Science provides recent doctoral graduates in physics, chemistry, engineering, mathematics or in allied disciplines with additional training and experience in the field of radiological science. A rationale for the program is the growing need for basic scientists with training in medical and biological imaging, fields which are assuming increased importance in medical practice and research. The program is designed to provide a two year training experience and includes courses, tutorials and participation in research seminars and laboratory meetings in addition to active participation in research projects. Training is conducted in the environment of a major medical center whose physical setting, intellectual resources and research activities provide an exciting milieu for scientists in training. The academic element of the training is facilitated by the affiliations of the Massachusetts General Hospital with the Harvard Medical School, Harvard School of Public Health and the Health Sciences and Technology Program operated jointly by Harvard and MIT. Research opportunities currently exist in the areas of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging, functional MRI, chemistry of NMR contrast agents, positron emission tomography, quantitative imaging and kinetic modeling and radiopharmaceutical chemistry.

描述（申请人描述）： 放射科学研究生课程为物理，化学，工程，数学或相关学科的博士毕业生提供放射科学领域的额外培训和经验。该计划的一个基本原理是对接受医学和生物成像培训的基础科学家的需求日益增长，这些领域在医学实践和研究中越来越重要。该计划旨在提供为期两年的培训经验，包括课程，辅导和参与研究研讨会和实验室会议，以及积极参与研究项目。 培训是在一个主要的医疗中心的环境中进行的，其物理环境，智力资源和研究活动为科学家提供了一个令人兴奋的环境。 马萨诸塞州总医院与哈佛医学院、哈佛公共卫生学院以及由哈佛和麻省理工学院联合开办的卫生科学和技术方案之间的联系促进了培训的学术内容。研究机会目前存在于核磁共振成像，功能性MRI，核磁共振造影剂的化学，正电子发射断层扫描，定量成像和动力学建模和放射性药物化学领域。
