Cancer-Focused Research

Exploring the role of advanced cardiac imaging, specifically strain imaging, in cardio-oncology and other cardiac diseases. I am currently the PI of a funded prospective study on the use of heart failure therapy in breast cancer patients with abnormal ehocardiographic strain imaging. Additionally, I have successfully collaborated with other researchers and produced several peer-reviewed publications on various aspects of cancer therapeutic related cardiac dysfunction.
