About

Ahmad Sweid is a neurosurgeon and researcher whose work sits at the cutting edge of robotic-assisted endovascular and cranial neurosurgery. His research focuses on the clinical translation of robotic technologies — particularly the CorPath GRX platform — into complex neurovascular procedures, including diagnostic cerebral angiography and carotid artery stenting. Sweid's landmark 2020 paper demonstrating the feasibility of robotic endovascular cerebral angiography and carotid stenting has garnered 83 citations, establishing him as a pioneering voice in validating robotic systems for neurointerventional applications previously limited to interventional cardiology. His comparative analyses of robotic-assisted versus manual carotid stenting via the transradial approach have provided crucial safety and efficacy data that inform real-world clinical adoption. Beyond endovascular work, his 2021 review on robotic applications in cranial neurosurgery — cited 47 times — reflects a broader intellectual commitment to understanding how artificial intelligence, enhanced connectivity, and precision robotics are reshaping the entire neurosurgical discipline. Collectively, Sweid's contributions, accumulating over 170 citations across his key works, are helping lay the empirical groundwork for a new era of safer, more precise neurovascular intervention.
