General Goals: nuclear cardiology training requires an understanding of cardiovascular pathology, physiology, and anatomy. These methods provide important diagnostic and prognostic information. As a first or second year fellow, the 2 months required in this area is designed to provide the general (level I) training necessary for a clinical cardiologist to understand the role of nuclear cardiology and cardiac CT in general clinical practice. This rotation will serve to allow the fellow to achieve competence in stress testing procedures. As an elective (additional months in the 2nd or 3rd year)

General Goals: Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology requires an understanding of cardiac physiology, and anatomy, as well as cellular electrophysiology. Fellows must be able to diagnose and treat a variety of acute and chronic arrhythmias. This requires knowledge of safe and effective use of antiarrhythmic drugs as well as indications for pacemaker and defibrillator implantation, radiofrequency ablation, and electrophysiology testing. In addition, fellows are taught appropriate evaluation and management of documented or suspected arrhythmias, as well as risk stratification for sudden death. From
