    Collapse Overview
    Dr. Hythem Nawaytou is a cardiologist who cares for children with pulmonary hypertension in the hospital as well as the clinic. He performs and interprets all types of echocardiography (ultrasound of the heart), including fetal echocardiograms (used to help diagnose and evaluate many heart conditions before birth).

    Nawaytou's research focuses on ways to better diagnose children with pulmonary hypertension and follow their progress over time. He also studies the use of echocardiography to evaluate heart function.

    Nawaytou earned combined bachelor of medicine and bachelor of surgery degrees at Cairo University's Kasr Alainy Faculty of Medicine. He completed a residency in pediatrics at State University of New York Downstate Health Sciences University, followed by a fellowship in pediatric cardiology at UCSF and a fellowship in advanced cardiac imaging at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

    In his free time, Nawaytou enjoys painting.

    Altmetrics Details PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
