Scientific Focus
Current Research Interests
My research group focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular emergencies including acute myocardial infarction, acute cornary syndrome and congestive heart failure. We have evaluated a number of novel cardiac markers and point-of-care testing in clinical practice. Current projects also include the diagnosis and treatment of acute pulmonary embolism and deep venous thrombosis.
