About

Elliot Levy is a researcher whose work bridges interventional radiology, robotics, and STEM education. His early contributions include pioneering work on the "Feasibility of percutaneous transabdominal portosystemic shunt creation" (8 citations), a study that explored minimally invasive techniques for portal hypertension. Levy also made significant strides in medical robotics, authoring "CT-directed robotic biopsy testbed: motivation and concept" (6 citations), which laid the groundwork for comparing robotically assisted biopsy to manual methods using a mobile CT scanner and needle driver robot. Beyond clinical applications, Levy has had a notable impact on K-12 STEM outreach through his paper "Affordable K-12 robotics programs" (5 citations), which analyzes the effectiveness of programs like GEAR, BEST, and FIRST Robotics in West Texas. His work demonstrates a unique ability to connect cutting-edge medical technology with accessible educational initiatives, advocating for a blended approach to robotics programs to maximize student participation. With a career spanning from interventional radiology to robotics education, Levy's research highlights the importance of innovation across disciplines, from the operating room to the classroom.
