About

Paul J. Christos is a leading researcher at the intersection of surgical robotics, neurorehabilitation, and advanced pulmonary diagnostics. His work spans two critical domains: enhancing recovery from stroke through robotic therapy and improving precision in robotic-assisted surgery. In stroke rehabilitation, Christos conducted foundational psychometric evaluations of the Arm Motor Ability Test (AMAT-9), establishing validated outcome measures for assessing upper-limb function in patients undergoing robotics treatment—work that has garnered over 100 citations. His landmark study on recurrence patterns after robot-assisted radical cystectomy for bladder cancer (167 citations) provided crucial evidence for the oncologic safety of minimally invasive approaches. More recently, Christos has pioneered investigations into radiation exposure during cone-beam CT-guided robotic bronchoscopy, quantifying patient and staff safety parameters in this emerging lung cancer diagnostic modality. He has also contributed to understanding post-operative dysphagia following anti-reflux surgery and physiologic parameters during re-operative procedures. With over 380 total citations across his portfolio, Christos’s work uniquely bridges engineering innovation and clinical outcomes, advancing both the technology and the evidence base for robotic applications in medicine.
