Research Interests

I am interested in the application of advanced cardiovascular imaging modalities to disease of the heart and circulatory system. I have a focus on cardiac MR and CT, particularly as these techniques may be used to investigate Inherited and Congenital Cardiac Conditions.

I am particularly interested in using imaging to better understand cardiomyopathy - Inherited (HCM, ARVC); Inflammatory (Sarcoid); Infiltrative (Amyloid, Fabry); Iatrogenic (Drug-related); and Idiopathic (Takotsubo)
