Ragesh B. Thandassery's research focuses on liver diseases, particularly hepatocellular carcinoma and its related conditions. His work investigates risk factors, diagnostic advancements, and treatment considerations for these complex conditions. Recent publications have explored sarcopenia in hepatocellular carcinoma, non-cirrhotic hepatocellular carcinoma in chronic viral hepatitis, and the increased diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with alcohol-related hepatitis following the COVID-19 outbreak. He has also published on predicting esophageal varices in compensated advanced chronic liver disease and the impact of COVID-19 on liver health and cirrhosis mortality. His research network includes collaborators from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, such as Nimy John, Fares Mashal, Cody J. Timmermann, and Allison Wells, with whom he has co-authored multiple publications. Thandassery holds an h-index of 18 with over 138 publications and 1,010 citations.
