About

Dr. M. Travis Caton is a pioneering neurointerventionalist whose research centers on the application of robotics to neuroendovascular surgery, with a particular focus on diagnostic cerebral angiography and tele-stroke care. His major contributions include demonstrating the safety, feasibility, and precision of robotic-assisted neurovascular procedures through multicenter clinical studies, such as his landmark work on robotic diagnostic cerebral angiography involving 113 patients. This research has been instrumental in advancing the field toward reduced occupational radiation exposure for physicians and improved procedural accuracy. His most cited work, "Robotics for neuroendovascular intervention: Background and primer" (2021, 16 citations), provides a foundational overview that contextualizes the rapid growth of robotic assistance in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and telemedicine. Dr. Caton’s multicenter experience paper (2023, 10 citations) further solidifies his role as a key investigator in translating robotic systems from single-institution case reports to broader clinical validation. His work is paving the way for future remote teleoperation in stroke care, positioning him as a leading voice in the next generation of neurointerventional technology.
