About

Gnanasekar Velusamy is a leading researcher in interventional radiology, with a primary focus on the development and validation of robotic-assisted technologies for percutaneous procedures. His work centers on enhancing the precision and efficacy of image-guided interventions, particularly under computed tomography (CT) guidance. Velusamy’s most cited study, “Accuracy and efficacy of percutaneous biopsy and ablation using robotic assistance under computed tomography guidance: a phantom study” (2013, 101 citations), established foundational evidence for the clinical utility of robotic systems in reducing procedural variability and improving target accuracy. This contribution has significant implications for minimally invasive cancer diagnostics and treatment, where precise needle placement is critical. Beyond this landmark work, Velusamy has advanced the integration of robotics into routine interventional workflows, addressing challenges in real-time imaging feedback and ergonomic design. His research has been instrumental in bridging the gap between engineering innovation and clinical practice, earning recognition for its translational impact. Velusamy’s ongoing efforts continue to shape the future of precision medicine, offering safer, more reproducible outcomes for patients undergoing biopsy and ablation procedures.
