Syrota's scientiic publications number 194 with an h-index of 49 and nearly 40 citations on average per peer-reviewed output. This is compatible with high achievement in the field especially as his original work was in the earlier part of his career. His facilitatory role in the field has very few parallels world-wide. Numerous high profile leaders in the field presently have benefited from is mentorship and collaboration. In France he has created the facilities and environment for human non-invasive imaging based medical research that are amongst the best in the world.
