Dr. Yalamanchili is an interventional cardiologist. He completed his cardiology fellowship as well as his interventional cardiology fellowship at the University of Louisville.

 

His professional skills include cardiac catheterization, techniques of complex coronary intervention, intracoronary stenting, rotational atherectomy, intravascular ultrasound, intravascular Doppler velocity determinations; peripheral vascular interventions including balloon angioplasty and stent deployment of subclavian, renal and aortoiliac-femoral vessels, and thrombolysis of iliac, superficial femoral and infra-popliteal vessels. Additionally, he is skilled in the performance of nuclear cardiology procedures, echocardiography and electrophysiology.

Dr. Yalamanchili is currently involved in several research projects regarding the evaluation of CFR after rotational atherectomy and stent implantation; evaluation of FFR as a tool to guide revascularization in patients with discrete proximal and distal lesions; the effect of adenosine on QT dispersion during angioplasty; and outpatient transradial coronary stenting.
