Somashekar G. Krishna

This researcher works in gastroenterology, focusing on diagnosing and managing diseases of the pancreas, bile ducts, and gallbladder using endoscopic techniques such as endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and ERCP (procedures using a scope to examine and treat the digestive tract and connected ducts). Much of the work involves evaluating pancreatic cysts, biliary obstructions, and pancreatitis, and testing new tools like AI-assisted image analysis and confocal laser endomicroscopy (a technique for real-time microscopic imaging during endoscopy) to improve diagnosis and reduce unnecessary surgeries.

Publication output has fluctuated over the past decade but remained steady overall, with a resurgence in output from 2023 onward after a mid-decade dip.
