    C. F. Rehnborg Professor and Professor of Medicine (Stanford Prevention Research Center)

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Maron is the Co-Chair and Principal Investigator of the ISCHEMIA trial, and Co-Chair of the ISCHEMIA-CKD trial. These large, international, NIH-funded studies will determine whether an initial invasive strategy of cardiac catheterization and revascularization plus optimal medical therapy will reduce cardiovascular events in patients with and without chronic kidney disease and at least moderate ischemia compared to an initial conservative strategy of optimal medical therapy alone.

    Douglass M. and Nola Leishman Professor of Cardiovascular Diseases, Professor of Pediatrics (Cardiology) and of Bioengineering and, by courtesy, of Mechanical Engineering

    Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe Cardiovascular Biomechanics Computation Lab at Stanford develops novel computational methods for the study of cardiovascular disease progression, surgical methods, and medical devices. We have a particular interest in pediatric cardiology, and use virtual surgery to design novel surgical concepts for children born with heart defects.

  • Andrew Philip Martella

    Andrew Philip Martella

    Clinical Associate Professor, Radiation Oncology - Radiation Therapy

    BioDr. Martella is a fellowship-trained radiation oncologist and a clinical assistant professor of radiation oncology at Stanford University School of Medicine.

    His clinical interests include gynecologic, breast, thoracic, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and central nervous system cancers. His experience encompasses the full range of radiotherapy techniques, including intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT), stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), CyberKnife radiosurgery, eye plaque brachytherapy, and prostate and gynecologic high dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy.

    Dr. Martella is dedicated to improving the quality of care and the patient experience. He deeply values a close relationship with his patients and their loved ones. He feels that each patient experiences healthcare in a unique and individual way. By recognizing and responding to those individual needs Dr. Martella provides a truly patient-centered experience.

  • Lynne Martin, MD

    Lynne Martin, MD

    Clinical Assistant Professor, Radiology

    BioDr. Martin is an interventional radiologist with Stanford Health Care Interventional Radiology. She is also a clinical instructor in the Department of Radiology, Division of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging at Stanford University School of Medicine.

    Dr. Martin specializes in interventional oncology (minimally invasive cancer treatments). She diagnoses and treats venous (vein) disease, including venous occlusion (when a vein becomes narrowed or blocked by nearby structures), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and vascular malformations (abnormal development of blood vessels). She also focuses on the management of cirrhosis (severe scarring of the liver) and portal hypertension (elevated pressure in a large abdominal vein). Additionally, she treats women’s health issues, such as fallopian tube blockages, chronic pelvic pain, pelvic venous disease, and uterine fibroids. She is a specialist provider for patients with HHT and pulmonary AVMs as well as patients with vascular malformations (arterial, venous, venolymphatic).

    Her research interests include treatments for portal vein thrombosis (clotting), liver cancer, and health care disparities. She has also studied intra-arterial corticosteroid treatment for inflammatory bowel disease. In addition, she has explored the use of bronchial artery embolization (blocking a blood vessel) for the treatment of hemoptysis (coughing up blood) in people with cystic fibrosis.

    Dr. Martin twice received the Society of Interventional Oncology (SIO) Scholarship Award. She won first place in SIO’s Artificial Intelligence Hackathon. She has also twice received the Etta Kalin Moskowitz Fund Research Award.

    Dr. Martin has published in peer-reviewed journals, including the Journal of Clinical Medicine, Neuropeptides, and Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology.
