About
Dr. Elisabeth Goetze is a pioneering oral and maxillofacial surgeon whose research focuses on the intersection of digitalization and artificial intelligence in microvascular reconstructive facial surgery. Her most-cited work, "Digitalisierung und Ansätze künstlicher Intelligenz in der mikrovaskulär-rekonstruktiven Gesichtschirurgie" (2020), explores how AI-driven planning and digital workflows can enhance precision and outcomes in complex facial reconstructions. This contribution, though early in its citation trajectory with 8 citations, marks a foundational step toward integrating machine learning into surgical decision-making for microvascular free flap procedures. Dr. Goetze’s broader research portfolio addresses the challenges of restoring form and function after major facial defects, leveraging computational tools to optimize flap design and reduce operative times. Her work is particularly notable for bridging the gap between traditional surgical craftsmanship and emerging digital technologies, offering a roadmap for safer, more predictable reconstructions. As a clinician-scientist, she actively advocates for interdisciplinary collaboration, positioning her as a key figure in the digital transformation of craniofacial surgery. Her ongoing investigations promise to reshape how surgeons approach the delicate balance of aesthetics and viability in microvascular reconstruction.
