About

Dr. Ajay Garg is a pioneering neurosurgeon whose work sits at the cutting edge of minimally invasive epilepsy surgery and robotic-assisted neurosurgery. His primary research focuses on developing novel, "bloodless" techniques for hemispherotomy—a radical procedure for drug-resistant epilepsy—and the use of robotic guidance systems like ROSA to enhance surgical precision. Dr. Garg’s major contributions include the first description of robotic thermocoagulative hemispherotomy (ROTCH), a groundbreaking technique that dramatically reduces blood loss compared to open surgery, as detailed in his 2021 paper (20 citations). He has also advanced the field through comparative studies demonstrating the efficacy and safety of endoscope-assisted hemispherotomy (43 citations) and pioneered the use of stereotactic radiofrequency thermocoagulation for hypothalamic hamartoma using robotic and O-arm guidance (30 citations). His work has been cited over 90 times, reflecting its significant impact on surgical practice. Most recently, Dr. Garg has expanded his research into the mechanical properties of pituitary adenomas, aiming to optimize surgical resection for these challenging skull base tumors. His innovative, technology-driven approach is reshaping the landscape of pediatric and adult epilepsy surgery.
