The CARDIO-IMAGE Program (CNIC-MSSM) will be launched against the backdrop of the Collaboration Agreement signed between the CNIC and the Mount Sinai School of Medicine (MSSM), the aim of which is to create a Joint Training and Research Unit in Cardiovascular Imaging. The objective of this Program is to offer blue-ribbon training in state-of-the-art cardiovascular imaging. This will be achieved through laboratory-based training at the CNIC-MSSM Joint Unit, located on the MSSM campus in New York.
