Sandhya R. Ramlogan, MBChB, FASE, FAAP, is a board-certified cardiologist and serves as the medical director of the echocardiography laboratory within the Texas Center for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Disease, a clinical partnership between Dell Children’s Medical Center and UT Health Austin. She specializes in pediatric cardiology with a focus on congenital heart disease, advanced cardiac imaging and perioperative echocardiography.

Ramlogan earned her medical degree from the Leeds School of Medicine in the United Kingdom, where she graduated with honors. She completed a residency in pediatrics at Elmhurst Hospital Center through the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and both a fellowship in pediatric cardiology and a fellowship in advanced noninvasive cardiac imaging, with a focus on 3D echocardiography, fetal echocardiography and transesophageal echocardiography, at Children’s Mercy Kansas City.

Ramlogan formerly served as the associate medical director for 3D and interventional echocardiography at the Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago, where she played a pivotal role in establishing several programs, including 3D and interventional echocardiography, contrast echo, echo for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and ventricular assist device protocols, and fetal outreach. She also served as the chair of the Pediatric Echo Committee at the American Registry of Diagnostic Sonography.

Ramlogan has an interest in advancing new technologies, such as 3D echo and automated software, to enhance patient care. Her clinical interests include reducing radiation and contrast exposure in the cardiac catheterization lab, using 3D echo for presurgical planning and implementing quality improvement initiatives in the echo lab. Her research focuses on advanced echo, with recognized expertise in 3D and interventional echo. She co-directed the inaugural Chicago 3D Echo Academy and contributed as a co-investigator in a Phase 4 multicenter study evaluating contrast agents in pediatrics. Her publications explore the utilization of 3D echo, interventional echo, contrast echo and strain.
