1950 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Surgery
  • Internal medicine
  • Radiology

Eben Alexander focuses on Radiation therapy, Radiosurgery, Nuclear medicine, Magnetic resonance imaging and Surgery. His Radiation therapy research integrates issues from Biopsy, Survival analysis, Chemotherapy and Glioma. His research in Radiosurgery intersects with topics in Radiation treatment planning, Central nervous system disease, Cavernous sinus, Metastasis and Performance status.

His study focuses on the intersection of Nuclear medicine and fields such as Stereotaxic technique with connections in the field of Isocenter. Eben Alexander combines subjects such as Tomography, Three dimensional planning and Medical imaging with his study of Magnetic resonance imaging. His work on Randomized controlled trial and External beam radiotherapy as part of general Surgery study is frequently connected to Univariate analysis, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

His most cited work include:

  • Evaluation of BCNU and/or radiotherapy in the treatment of anaplastic gliomas: A cooperative clinical trial (1430 citations)
  • Development and implementation of intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging and its neurosurgical applications. (689 citations)
  • Stereotactic Radiosurgery for the Definitive, Noninvasive Treatment of Brain Metastases (512 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Eben Alexander mainly focuses on Surgery, Radiosurgery, Radiation therapy, Radiology and Neurosurgery. His study in Surgery is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Anesthesia and Spinal cord. His Radiosurgery study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Radiation treatment planning and Astrocytoma.

His Radiation therapy research incorporates elements of Brain tumor, Survival analysis, Nuclear medicine and Glioma. A large part of his Radiology studies is devoted to Magnetic resonance imaging. Neurosurgery connects with themes related to General surgery in his study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Surgery (21.40%)
  • Radiosurgery (17.91%)
  • Radiation therapy (16.74%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1993-2007)?

  • Radiosurgery (17.91%)
  • Radiation therapy (16.74%)
  • Radiology (12.79%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Radiosurgery, Radiation therapy, Radiology, Surgery and Magnetic resonance imaging. Radiosurgery is a subfield of Internal medicine that Eben Alexander explores. The Radiation therapy study combines topics in areas such as Central nervous system disease, Anaplastic astrocytoma, Astrocytoma, Nuclear medicine and Survival analysis.

His work focuses on many connections between Nuclear medicine and other disciplines, such as Brachytherapy, that overlap with his field of interest in Stereotaxic technique. His Surgery study also includes fields such as

  • Metastasis which connect with Retrospective cohort study,
  • Medulloblastoma that connect with fields like Ependymoma. His studies deal with areas such as Artificial intelligence, Medical imaging, Surgical planning, Craniotomy and Computer vision as well as Magnetic resonance imaging.

Between 1993 and 2007, his most popular works were:

  • Development and implementation of intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging and its neurosurgical applications. (689 citations)
  • Stereotactic Radiosurgery for the Definitive, Noninvasive Treatment of Brain Metastases (512 citations)
  • A multiinstitutional outcome and prognostic factor analysis of radiosurgery for resectable single brain metastasis (453 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Surgery
  • Internal medicine
  • Radiology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Radiosurgery, Radiation therapy, Magnetic resonance imaging, Nuclear medicine and Radiology. His Radiosurgery research incorporates themes from Sedation, Anesthesia, Local anesthesia, Vomiting and Sinusitis. His Radiation therapy study is concerned with the field of Surgery as a whole.

The concepts of his Surgery study are interwoven with issues in Metastasis and Incidence. His Magnetic resonance imaging research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Three dimensional planning, Medical imaging, Cavernous sinus, Surgical planning and Tomography. His Nuclear medicine research focuses on Radiation treatment planning and how it connects with Stereotactic radiation therapy, Radiography and Prospective cohort study.
