About

Dr. Eli I. Lev is a leading researcher in interventional cardiology and electrophysiology, with a focused expertise in reducing occupational radiation exposure during fluoroscopically guided procedures. His major contributions center on the development and clinical validation of a novel robotic radiation shielding device (RSS) designed to protect operators from the cumulative health risks of ionizing radiation. In a prospective study (2023, 7 citations), Dr. Lev demonstrated the device’s feasibility and efficacy in real-world electrophysiologic procedures. Building on this, his 2025 work (2 citations) provided critical evidence that the robotic RSS significantly reduces radiation-induced DNA double-strand breaks in operators, directly addressing growing concerns about long-term carcinogenic risks. By quantifying the biological impact of low-dose radiation and offering a practical, automated solution, Dr. Lev’s research bridges engineering innovation with occupational safety. His work is particularly notable for translating a pressing clinical safety issue into a tangible protective technology, positioning him as a key figure in advancing safer procedural environments for electrophysiologists and catheterization lab staff worldwide.
