About
Y. Kyriakou is a leading researcher in advanced medical imaging, with a primary focus on **robot-assisted C-arm flat panel detector CT (FDCT) systems** and their application in **neurovascular and otologic imaging**. Their work is pioneering the integration of robotic precision with CT technology to achieve higher image quality, greater flexibility, and reduced radiation doses for targeted anatomical regions. A key contribution is the development of **Volume-of-Interest (VOI) imaging**, demonstrated in a 2011 study on the inner ear, which proved the feasibility of obtaining superior, low-dose images of subregions like the temporal bone. Kyriakou has also made significant strides in **stroke imaging**, introducing a novel technique in 2014 for measuring cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebral blood volume (CBV) using a robot-arm-mounted FDCT in a large-animal model. This work is crucial for improving patient selection in endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke, particularly for those presenting late after symptom onset. With foundational papers cited over a decade, Kyriakou’s research is instrumental in advancing robotic imaging platforms toward more precise, safer, and functionally rich diagnostic tools.
