Ihab B Alomari

Ihab B. Alomari, MD serves as an Associate Professor in the Department of Medicine at the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine. His academic career focuses on cardiovascular research within the medical field, particularly examining cardiac manifestations in autoimmune conditions.

Dr. Alomari's research interests center around cardiovascular aspects of systemic lupus erythematosus, with specialization in echocardiographic assessment techniques. His work investigates left ventricular diastolic function using both transesophageal and transthoracic echocardiography methods, examining how autoimmune diseases affect cardiac performance.

His publication record demonstrates expertise in comparing echocardiographic techniques for assessing diastolic function, particularly in patient populations with systemic lupus erythematosus. His research contributes to understanding the relationship between aortic stiffness and cardiac dysfunction in autoimmune disease contexts.

Dr. Alomari collaborates with researchers in cardiology and rheumatology, contributing to the understanding of premature cardiovascular disease in systemic lupus erythematosus patients. His work helps establish echocardiography as a valuable tool for assessing cardiac function in autoimmune disease populations.
