About me
Dr Carpenter is a Consultant Cardiologist. He is Clinical Lead for Cardiology at Poole Hospital with a specialist interest in cardiac imaging and cardiovascular problems in patients with cancer. He qualified in 1996 from Guy's and St. Thomas' Hospitals, London before training in Cardiology.
He was appointed to a National Institutes of Health (NIH) funded research Fellowship at the Royal Brompton Hospital in London in 2007, followed by a Clinical Fellowship in imaging and heart failure at University Hospitals Southampton before taking up a locum consultant position in cardiovascular MRI, inherited cardiac diseases and cardio-oncology at the Brompton where he helped set up the specialist cardio-oncology service. Since starting in Poole in 2013, he has overseen the ongoing development of a comprehensive local cardiac MRI, CT and echo service with an extended outreach to neighbouring institutions as well as providing cardio-oncology input and imaging services for cancer patients in the Dorset Cancer Centre.
His research interests include non-invasive imaging, in particular cardiac MRI with a focus on haematological (red cell) disorders leading to cardiac iron overload and its assessment. He has been an invited speaker at multiple local, national and international meetings. He is passionate about cardiology in general with a particular interest in imaging, both advanced echocardiography and cross-sectional imaging (cardiac CT and MRI).
He is Chair of the Examination Board for the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging (EACVI) Section CMR as well as Deputy Chair for Certification for EACVI and is a founding board member of the British Cardio-Oncology Society (BC-OS).
