About
Dr. Thomas Landry is a Researcher in the School of Biomedical Engineering at Dalhousie University's Faculty of Medicine. His work focuses on developing miniature ultrasound devices for medical imaging and therapy, particularly in minimally invasive surgical applications. Current projects include creating a brain imaging/histotripsy endoscope and studying cochlear mechanics through ultrasound vibrometry. He leads a lab engaged in transducer fabrication, electronic hardware development, and testing for clinical applications.
Research interests emphasize ultrasonic piezoelectric transducers, minimally invasive surgical tools, and ultrasound-guided therapies. His lab utilizes in-house micro-fabrication facilities to target applications like spinal surgery imaging and tissue ablation. Recent work explores inertial cavitation probability assessment and finite-element modeling of middle ear structures.
Publications highlight advancements in endoscopic ultrasound systems, histotripsy transducer design, and cochlear implant evaluations. His contributions span biomedical engineering, medical physics, and clinical otology. The lab's innovations aim to enhance patient outcomes through reduced surgical invasiveness and improved diagnostic precision.
