Christos V. Bourantas

Christos V. Bourantas graduated from the Medical School, University of Ioannina, Greece in 1999, and 6 years later, he was awarded with distinction for his PhD degree in Cardiology from the same Medical School. He completed his training in Cardiology in UK and he is currently working as a Fellow in interventional cardiology in East Yorkshire NHS Trust, UK. His research interests include image processing, 3D modeling, invasive imaging, and cardiac MRI. He is an Honorary Lecturer in the Department of Academic Cardiology Hull University, Kingston upon Hull, UK.
