Dr. Dori is a pediatric cardiologist and Director of the Jill and Mark Fishman Center for Lymphatic Disorders in the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. Our team have already discovered the cause and developed novel treatments for a handful of rare and complex lymphatic diseases.  We are also currently using lymphatic imaging and interventional techniques, developed in our institution, to clarify the role of the lymphatic system in several common conditions, such as chronic lung disease and congestive heart failure, which affects more than 5 million people in the United States alone.  Our main research interest is in lymphatic flow disorders and the interface between the lymphatic and cardiovascular system.
