Laura Jean Olivieri, MD, is a board-certified Pediatric Cardiologist and the Director of Noninvasive Cardiac Imaging at Children's Hospital Pittsburgh, and an Associate Professor of Pediatrics at University of Pittsburgh. She graduated from University of Chicago Pritzker School of Medicine and completed her pediatric residency at Brown University in Providence, RI, where she also was invited to stay for a chief year. She completed her training in pediatric cardiology at Children's National Medical Center in Washington, DC following by a year in advanced cardiac imaging at the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute specializing in cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging. She is expert in transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography, cardiac MRI and cardiac CT. She is also considered a leader in the field of 3-dimensional reconstruction of congenital heart defects from 3D imaging, and in adapting MRI methods to babies and children. She is most interested in improving image acquisition using MRI and echocardiographic in 3D printing of heart models and has compiled a successful grant portfolio to that end. She also serves as Principal Investigator for an R01 to investigate application of cardiac MRI and Interventional Cardiac Magnetic Resonance on the care of pediatric heart transplant patients. This is a 4.5 million dollar, 5-year contract aimed at using CMR to guide interventional cardiac catheterization procedures, using less sedation for diagnostic CMR procedures and to advance diagnostic CMR capabilities to use less invasive testing. Dr. Olivieri is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in Angioplasty. Her top areas of expertise are Subpulmonary Stenosis, Coarctation of the Aorta, Tetralogy of Fallot, Heart Transplant, and Angioplasty.
