He is world-renowned for his coronary bifurcation classification known as “The Movahed Classification” and discovery on the flatt interventricular septum as a sign for right ventricular overload called “ Movahed’s sign on Gated SPECT and reverse “Movahed Maneuver” for stent deliverability in tortuous vein grafts. His patents are: A device for removal of contrast from coronary sinus and device that can measure cross sectional lumen of a vessel. He is AHA board president in AZ.
