About
Dr. Ajita Kanthan is a renowned cardiologist known for his groundbreaking work in radiation-free procedural techniques. His achievements include performing the first radiation-free transvenous pacemaker implant in the country, establishing him as a pioneer in this specialised technique. Dr. Kanthan remains the sole cardiologist in Australia regularly performing this advanced pacemaker procedure. Moreover, he has conducted the first radiation-free cardiac ablations for both supra-ventricular and ventricular rhythm disorders in Sydney. As an expert in his field, Dr. Kanthan has earned a reputation as a national and international trainer on device implantation and radiation-free procedural techniques.
Dr. Kanthan completed his undergraduate medical training at the University of Sydney in 2000. He further specialised in internal medicine and adult cardiology at Westmead Hospital, completing his training in 2008. He later earned a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Medicine from the University of Sydney in 2013.
Dr. Kanthan pursued additional cardiac subspecialty training in cardiac rhythm management in Italy, under the guidance of Professor Silvia Priori at the Molecular Cardiology and Electrophysiology Laboratories, Fondazione Salvatore Maugeri, and at Monash HEART in Melbourne.
