Dr. Cooke earned his medical degree from Emory University, Atlanta in 2004, and completed his residency in Diagnostic Radiology at the University of Washington, Seattle. He completed a fellowship in Neuroradiology at the University of Washington, Seattle in 2010, followed by another fellowship in Neuro Interventional Radiology from the University of California, San Francisco in 2012.

Dr. Cooke’s primary research is in the use of contemporary endovascular surgical methods to assess endothelial cells in the setting of neurovascular pathology. In his work with MR generated computational fluid dynamic data and microsurgical specimens he aims to characterize the local and regional molecular events underlying the evolution of aneurysms, AVMs, and AVFs.

Dr. Cooke’s research interests include: endovascular biopsy, pre-natal brain AVM detection, endovascular brachytherapy, flat panel CT-fluoroscopically guided intervention, and chemoinfusion. Dr. Cooke is also involved in research on catheter-based interventions for hemorrhagic stroke as well as regenerative cell therapies for ischemic stroke.
