About
Matthew J. Gounis is a leading figure in interventional neuroradiology and neurovascular device development, with a research focus on image-guided therapies, stroke treatment, and minimally invasive neurosurgical techniques. His major contributions include pioneering work in robotic-assisted MRI-guided interventions, particularly the development of interstitial MR-guided focused ultrasound (iMRgFUS) as an alternative to laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) for ablating brain tumors and epileptic foci. His 2018 study on iMRgFUS in a swine model, cited over 20 times, demonstrated the technique’s ability to produce larger, more controlled ablations without thermal tissue charring—a critical advantage over existing methods. Gounis’s research has significantly advanced the precision and safety of neurointerventional procedures, impacting both preclinical and clinical applications. With a career spanning numerous high-impact publications and collaborations, his work continues to shape the future of image-guided neurosurgery, offering new hope for patients with otherwise difficult-to-treat neurological conditions.
