4th Year Pediatric Advanced Cardiac Noninvasive Imaging Fellow

Program Overview

NOTE: We are not accepting external applications for the 2027–2028 Advanced Imaging Fellowship position but will be participating in the San Francisco Match in future years.

The Pediatric Advanced Cardiac Imaging Fellowship is a strong multifaceted program encompassing advanced cross-sectional imaging including cardiac MRI (CMR), cardiac CTA, fetal echocardiography, transesophageal echocardiography and advanced transthoracic echocardiography including 3D echocardiogram. The focus is on education, research that would cultivate advancement in technical skills, and maturation as an academic imager with ability to develop research and incorporate quality assessment and improvement across multimodality imaging applications.

The successful candidate will be joining a strong team of trainees including first-year, second-year, and third-year categorical cardiology fellows as well as a dedicated team of advanced imagers, sonographers and radiology techs.

The Nemours Advanced Imaging Fellowship Program will be using the San Francisco Match Program to fill our position for the 2026–2027 academic year. Please see application requirements below.
