In celebration, we’re spotlighting 15 of the advances made possible by the center’s good work. This year marks the 15th anniversary of the Pauley Heart Center’s naming, paying tribute to the original gift that laid the foundation for its growth. “The Pauleys provided those so we could move forward in clinical care, education and research. “Most heart centers don’t have those resources at their disposal,” Hundley says. The cardiac imaging suite would provide Hundley with the necessary equipment to continue his National Institutes of Health-funded research - with grants totaling nearly $20 million over 20 consecutive years - on preventive heart care for patients undergoing chemotherapy, as well as bring the innovative technology to Pauley patients. Through the Pauley Family Foundation, the couple committed $5 million to support recruitment efforts for Hundley’s position and $4 million to build an 8,000 square-foot cardiovascular imaging suite with echocardiography and MRI technology. He also pioneered the use of MRI technology to visualize and measure blood flow in the coronary arteries. In Hundley, the Pauleys met a physician-scientist who was the first in the world to demonstrate that MRI stress testing can identify individuals at risk of heart attack. They had been impressed with the care delivered by a cardiology program that traces its roots to 1946 when Reno Porter, M.D., established MCV’s cardiovascular laboratories. When the three first met, the couple had already made their transformational $5 million gift to name the Pauley Heart Center in 2006.
