Specializations
Coronary artery disease & chronic angina
The investigator concentrates on patients suffering from chronic angina due to coronary artery disease, particularly those at high risk for incomplete revascularization.
- Incomplete revascularization
- Ischemic burden assessment
- Risk stratification
Therapeutic efforts aim to restore myocardial blood flow and alleviate symptomatic chest pain.
Left ventricular dysfunction & heart failure
Research targets left ventricular dysfunction associated with reduced contractile performance in the setting of coronary disease.
- Contractile function preservation
- Heart failure progression
- Ventricular remodeling
Interventions are directed toward improving ventricular efficiency and preventing adverse remodeling.
Cardiac surgery & bypass grafting
The focus includes patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting who may experience suboptimal graft completeness.
- Surgical revascularization outcomes
- Bypass graft patency
- Post‑operative ischemia
Efforts are made to enhance surgical strategies and postoperative recovery.
Gene therapy in cardiovascular disease
Exploration of novel gene therapy approaches aimed at modifying disease pathways in high‑risk coronary patients.
- Therapeutic gene delivery
- Targeted molecular modulation
- Safety and efficacy profiling
These studies seek to introduce innovative biological treatments for myocardial protection.
Cardiac imaging biomarkers
Utilization of advanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging techniques to quantify residual ischemia and functional reserve.
- Stress perfusion CMR
- Ischemic burden quantification
- Left ventricular contractile assessment
Imaging biomarkers guide therapeutic decisions and monitor treatment impact.
