About
Dr. Fady specialises in advanced heart imaging: 3D echocardiography in adults and children, transoesophageal echo from within the oesophagus for a closer view of the heart, and stress echo that picks up blocked arteries and assesses valve disease under exertion. He also restores normal rhythm in atrial fibrillation using cardioversion under sedation, keeping the procedure comfortable. His research appears in journals including the European Heart Journal, and he serves as a reviewer for international journals in imaging and interventional cardiology, speaking at congresses including EuroEcho.
