Darryl J. Burstow has made significant contributions to the fields of cardiology and cardiovascular medicine through their research on various aspects of heart function, valve disease, and interventional procedures. Their work includes studies on prognostic value in myocardial infarction, mitral valve bio-prostheses, carcinoid heart disease, and outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve implantation in high-risk patients. Additionally, they have explored the role of contrast microspheres in enhancing echocardiographic imaging, particularly for assessing right ventricular function, and the utility of novel non-invasive parameters like the pulmonary to left atrial ratio to differentiate between pre-capillary and post-capillary pulmonary hypertension.
