Mark van den Dorpel

Mark van den Dorpel is a Researcher in the Cardiology department at Erasmus University Rotterdam, specializing in interventional cardiology with a focus on transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and valvular heart disease. His work centers on optimizing clinical outcomes through advanced imaging and procedural techniques.

His research interests include:

• Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) methodologies
• Aortic stenosis and valvular pathology
• Cardiac imaging innovations (echocardiography and CT)
• Hemodynamic assessment in structural heart interventions
• Clinical outcome analysis for valve replacement therapies

Recent 2025 publications demonstrate a concentrated effort on TAVR refinement, covering patient selection for moderate aortic stenosis, multiphase CT calcium scoring, echocardiography accuracy for regurgitation assessment, and valve-type comparisons in the NAVULTRA registry. These works highlight his emphasis on evidence-based procedural optimization through multicenter collaboration.

Dr. van den Dorpel maintains active research partnerships across international cardiology networks, particularly within the NAVULTRA consortium. No information regarding student mentorship, grant funding, or laboratory leadership was identified in the provided materials.
