Institute for Experimental and Translational Cardiovascular Imaging

Our Mission: developing imaging biomarkers that guide treatment
and reduce the burden of cardiovascular disease

The Institute for Experimental and Translational Cardiovascular Imaging is part of the medical faculty of the Goethe University. It performs its clinical services as part of the University Hospital Frankfurt in close collaboration with Cardiology and Radiology. The department is dedicated to translational clinical research of cardiovascular imaging biomarkers bringing the best imaging methods into clinical practice to improve patient outcomes. This undertaking was made possible through a substantial support from the German Centre for Cardiovascular Research (www.dzhk.de) and Ministry of Science of Hesse.
