About

Fabrizio Dori is a leading researcher in health technology assessment (HTA) and patient safety, with a focused expertise in robotic surgery evaluation. His major contributions lie in developing integrated methodologies that combine HTA with Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) to systematically assess robotic systems in urology and general surgery. His most-cited work, "Integrated HTA-FMEA/FMECA methodology for the evaluation of robotic system in urology and general surgery" (2016, 11 citations), provides a pioneering framework for evaluating safety, process efficiency, and technology performance in robotic-assisted procedures. Dori also advanced hospital-based economic assessments of robotic surgery (2013, 3 citations), offering critical cost-benefit analyses for healthcare decision-makers. His work bridges clinical engineering and health economics, enabling hospitals to adopt robotic technologies with evidence-based risk and value assessments. Dori’s research has informed surgical safety protocols and technology adoption strategies, making him a key voice in the intersection of medical robotics, patient safety, and economic sustainability.
