Jeffrey Dendy, MD, is a cardiologist and Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC). His expertise is in non-invasive cardiovascular imaging, with a focus on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Following his clinical training, he served as the Director of Cardiovascular Imaging at PRISMA Health / University of South Carolina School of Medicine, Greenville. In 2020, he joined the faculty at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Dr. Dendy's research focuses on cardiovascular MRI, including investigating the biophysical basis of blood oxygen-dependent signals in the myocardium. This work includes developing MRI pulse programming and programming MATLAB for analyzing and quantifying MRI data.

In addition, he leads projects investigating COVID-19-related myocardial injury using cMRI and is currently a co-investigator on an R01 project in which he utilizes cMRI to investigate subclinical myocardial disease in patients with atrial fibrillation.

In July of 2024, he founded Heartvue.AI, a cardiac imaging company that uses artificial intelligence to automate the workflow and data collection in cardiac imaging.
