Title : Role Of Multimodality Imaging In Diagnosis, Treatment And Prognosis/Risk Stratification In Patent Ductus Arteriosus Patients

Abstract:

Introduction: The ductus arteriosus is a vascular structure that connects the proximal descending aorta to the roof of the main pulmonary artery near the origin of the left branch pulmonary artery. This physiologically essential fetal structure normally closes spontaneously after birth. After the first few weeks of life, persistence of ductal patency is abnormal. And this abnormal presence of the ductus arteriosus is called PDA/patent ductus arteriosus. The physiological impact and clinical significance of the PDA depend largely on its size and the underlying cardiovascular status of the patient in recent years, cardiac imaging has advanced technologically, and patients with cardiovascular disease have become increasing more complex. This has led to the development of multimodal imaging, that is, the integration of several different imaging techniques with a single objective: to establish a precise diagnosis of the disease, in order guide treatment and predict prognosis throughout the patient's follow-up.

Objective: Our objective here is to establish and sum-up the importance and predict the potential of practical applications of multimodality imaging in PDA patients.

Methodology: Since there has been a lack of organized data on the application of multimodality imaging in congenital heart disease patients particularly patent ductus arteriosus/PUD. So in order to stratify the data we performed a fundamental/basic research, which aims to

  • Seeks generalization.
  • Aims at basic disease processes.
  • Attempts to explain why things happen.
  • Tries to get all the facts available till date, with sufficient data to support the objective.
  • Reports in technical language of the topic.

Conclusions: The use of multimodality imaging has been proved to help specialists provide the patients with an early diagnosis and a much more detailed information on about how the disease might progress in the future, and of-course the risk involved with it, also on the other hand has provided researchers with much more detailed and relevant data on how the disease progresses pathologically providing a better insight for developing and designing or customizing the treatment modalities for such patients. There is lot to learn for us about the potential this technique holds and there is a long way to go, but the future looks promising.

What will audience learn from your presentation?

  • The use of multimodality imaging has been proved to help specialists provide the patients with an early diagnosis and a much more detailed information on about how the disease might progress in the future.
  • The study will help specialists calculate the risk involved with congenital heart defects, also on the other hand will provide researchers with much more detailed and relevant data on how the disease progresses pathologically providing a better insight for developing and designing or customizing the treatment modalities for such patients. There is lot to learn for us about the potential this technique holds and there is a long way to go, but the future looks promising.

Biography:

In 2008, Dr. Rahul graduated from YSMU with a Bachelor’s degree in general medicine. Following his first degree, He did an MBA in hospital administration and fellowships in critical care medicine completed in 2017,2018 and 2021 respectively after which in 2020, He completed masters in Internal Medicine.

He completed his Bachelor’s with flying colors and was selected to even read Hippocratic oath for whole of his passing batch. During Master’s degree, He excelled at academics and completed his masters with very high marks. It was during his masters when he started his research work and got number of articles and abstracts published in various international conferences and journals. This experience not only provided him the opportunity to practice different forms of scientific communication, but also developed his capacity to interact with the public as well as scientists, journalists, scientific and governmental institutions. Through his studies and clinical experience not only he learned to treat patients but also learned how to use write and promote articles, work in science festivals, realization of exhibitions, organization of scientific events.

At present, He is working in YSMU in capacity of head of the department for International Students’ Affairs and assistant teaching in operative and topographical surgery department. With this, he is also consulting patients in department of Internal Medicine in Mikaleyan Institute of Surgery in capacity of consultant physician and also happens to be consultant physician on panel for Indian embassy in Armenia
