Objectives

  • To provide all projects in the CORT with the infrastructure, expertise, and tools to support customized imaging acquisition, as well as image and data analysis as detailed below.
  • To act as a catalyst for introducing new technologies into a broad range of musculoskeletal translational research projects, through UCSF and its Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI), and through the UC Davis Medical Center and its Clinical and Translational Science Center (CTSC) and other forms of outreach.
  • To disseminate information pertaining to the capabilities of the Core, increase research collaborations, and provide educational sessions to major and minor users, residents, fellows and students. For example, see highlights from one of our first IDAC Workshops at: http://ticr-ucsf.mediasite.com/mediasite/Viewer/?peid=989ecb228f404b7c84b68eb7fe552b881d
