The Cardiovascular Research Foundation and Angiographic Core Laboratory of Harvard Medical faculty physicians at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center announced CRFiCOR, a new research concept that aims to enhance patient care.

CRFiCOR is currently being tested in New York City and Boston. It focuses primarily on laboratory analysis; coronary angiography; carotid and peripheral angiography; intravascular imaging and structural heart disease assessment; electrocardiography; and CT and MRI.

Gary S. Mintz, MD, chief medical officer of the Cardiovascular Research Foundation, said, “We regard this exciting new initiative, which integrates multiple imaging modalities and advanced information technology initiatives, as a vision for the future.”
