Isabella Harris My clinical interests involve pioneering the use of intracardiac echo (ICE) for structural heart interventions and low-contrast precision percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) of those with compromised kidney function.
My research has culminated in compelling data on clinical outcomes of imaging-based PCI in coronary artery ectasia. Additionally, my novel research has underscored the safety and feasibility of dobutamine coupled with pressure wire usage in the severity assessment of low flow, low gradient aortic stenosis.
I have served as a member of the publications & editorial coordination committee of the American College of Cardiology (ACC). I have also been an invited abstract reviewer for their annual scientific session for 6 consecutive years and currently serve as a section Editor for the US Cardiology Review Journal.
My goal is to understand each patient's needs and offer the right therapeutic intervention to the right patient at the right time to offer mortality benefit and improve quality of life.
