Program Overview 

Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital’s Pediatric Advanced Cardiac Imaging Fellowship Program is a year-long program that offers an innovative and collaborative learning environment.

The mission of the Pediatric Advanced Cardiac Imaging Fellowship is to provide the next generation of leaders in pediatric cardiology with the skills to develop as an outstanding pediatric imaging cardiologist. Our one-year training program uses an innovative, collaborative and trainee-focused environment.

The Johns Hopkins All Children’s Heart Institute provides comprehensive care to children and adults with congenital heart disease. Fellows will be involved in all aspects of the spectrum of care including multiple echocardiography and non-invasive imaging modalities. The fellow will receive extensive training in fetal echocardiography.

Training includes close interaction with faculty, participation in education curriculum, mentored scholarly academic investigation and performance assessments. Fellows will manage, educate and work closely with a multidisciplinary team, including advanced practice providers, resident physicians, nurses, pharmacists, sonographers, social workers and case managers. Rounds are multidisciplinary, family-centered and follow a team-science approach.

The Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital Pediatric Advanced Cardiac Imaging Fellowship Program trains one fellow per year. This individualized learning track allows fellows to focus on an area of interest, such as academic, research or clinical-focused career paths.
