Department of Pathology Diagnostic Services
Cardiac Pathology
The department has extensive experience in cardiac and cardiac transplant
pathology. The laboratory reviews more than 2200 cardiovascular specimens
each year, including cardiomyopathy and post-transplant heart biopsies,
hearts and cardiac valve explants, aneurysms, and biopsies of blood vessels.
There is also extensive experience in the pathology of congenital heart
diseases.
The faculty includes Charles Marboe, M.D., Harshwardhan Thaker, M.D., Ph.D., and Matthias Szabolcs, M.D.
In addition to diagnostic cardiac pathology, the faculty is actively
involved in research projects. Major areas of interest include cardiac
transplant pathology, non-invasive monitoring of post-transplant status,
evaluation of experimental drug and stem cell therapies for cardiac
allograft rejection, myocardial infarcts and arrhythmias in animal models,
and the molecular biology of cardiovascular development and heart failure.
