Prof. Dr. Giovanni Di Salvo qualified in Italy in 1996, obtaining his certificate of perfection in Medical Emergencies and specializing in cardiology. He gained a master's degree in medical imaging in 2002 at the Katholieke University of Leuven, Belgium, and his PhD in cardio-respiratory physiopathology and associated biotechnologies in 2004.
Di Salvo has worked globally in various institutions, including Naples and Saudi Arabia, before joining the Trust in 2016 as a lead consultant in pediatric echocardiography. In July 2017, Dr. Di Salvo led pediatric cardiology research at Royal Brompton Hospital, and in October 2016 became an honorary senior lecturer at Imperial College, London.
Since 2019 he has been director of the pediatric cardiology and congenital heart disease program at the University of Padua (the oldest university in the world), Italy. He is currently the chair of the EACVI task force on CHD and the chair of the EACVI guidelines on CHD.
Presentation Title: The Role of Echo in Congenital Heart Disease

Pediatric Cardiologist
Leiden University Medical Center
Leiden, the Netherlands
Dr. R.L.F. (Roel) van der Palen (MD, PhD) is a pediatric cardiologist focussing on non-invasive imaging of congenital heart defects. Since 2016 he has been working as a staff member in the Center for Congenital Heart Disease Amsterdam-Leiden (CAHAL), location Leiden University Medical Center, the Netherlands. In addition to his clinical work, he focuses on patient-oriented and fundamental cardiovascular research. During his PhD research, he investigated different aspects of aortic regurgitation and aortic root dilatation in patients with transposition of the great arteries. With 4D flow MRI, aortic blood flow hemodynamics were evaluated, which provided insight into the pathophysiology and explaining clinical manifestations in these patients after corrective surgery.
