IMAGING CORE

心脏成像核心是一个跨学科的资源，将提供心脏磁共振和计算机断层成像和分析的综合专业知识，以最佳地表征心肌梗死后细胞治疗在所有SCCT项目中的疗效。该成像核心将作为最近建立的资源和活动网络的一部分，致力于在约翰霍普金斯医学院进行的几项大型多学科研究中对人类心血管疾病和实验病理学进行表型分析。该设施的使命是提供最先进的成像采集和分析技术，不仅满足本应用程序中描述的单个项目的目的和研究目标，而且还促进新假设驱动的扩展

The Cardiac Imaging Core is an interdisciplinary resource that will provide comprehensive expertise in cardiac magnetic resonance and computed tomography imaging and analysis to optimally characterize the efficacy of cell therapy following myocardial infarction in all SCCT projects. This imaging core will function as part of a recently established network of resources and activities dedicated to phenotyping human cardiovascular disease and experimental pathology in several large ongoing multidisciplinary efforts at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. The mission of this facility is to offer state of the art imaging acquisition and analysis techniques that not only fulfill the aims and research objectives of the individual projects described in this application, but also facilitate the expansion of new hypothesisdriven biomedical imaging research. Intense multidisciplinary intellectual collaboration will ensure a strong synergism that will undoubtedly benefit the execution of tasks involving imaging and analysis in this SCCT application.
