Summary
Dr. K.P. Madhu specializes in noninvasive cardiac imaging techniques such as echocardiography, cardiac CT, and cardiac MRI. He also provides comprehensive care in general cardiology. In 2000, he was appointed as the Co-Director of Adult Congenital Heart Disease and Director of the Echocardiography Laboratory. His general cardiology clinic offers specialized treatment for adult patients, including those with congenital heart disease, valvular disease, and coronary artery disease.

In addition to cardiac imaging, Dr. Madhu is interested in computer-enhanced acoustic diagnostic techniques. He has partnered in biomedical engineering research to improve stethoscope technology, and is currently involved in clinical studies to determine whether preliminary diagnosis of coronary and carotid blockages can be accurately determined using an electronic acoustic recording instrument.
