Get to know Minh B. Nguyen, MD
Dr. Nguyen is a board-certified pediatric cardiologist who specializes in pediatric echocardiography. After his pediatric cardiology fellowship, he completed a research fellowship in echocardiography where he received training in clinical and translational research and additional clinical training in transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography. His primary research interest is translating novel innovations in cardiac imaging to improve the care of children with acquired and congenital heart disease. His recent work involves applying machine learning to enhance the interpretation of conventional echocardiographic cardiac function assessment as well as developing novel ultrasound techniques to characterize the myocardium (e.g., non-invasive myocardial perfusion assessment and shear wave elastography). This research stands to benefit many children with heart disease including those with cardiomyopathies, tetralogy of Fallot, and single ventricle palliation.
