About

Francesco Di Mario is a leading surgical researcher whose work centers on advancing hepatobiliary and pancreatic (HPB) surgery through innovative imaging technologies. His primary contributions lie in the application of fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS) for liver tumors, a technique that has transformed how surgeons visualize and resect both benign and malignant neoplasms. His landmark 2018 paper, “Fluorescence guided surgery in liver tumors: applications and advantages,” has garnered 49 citations, underscoring its influence in establishing FGS as a critical tool for achieving radical resections while preserving healthy liver parenchyma. Di Mario’s research addresses a core challenge in HPB surgery: balancing oncologic clearance with organ function. By refining intraoperative imaging methods, he has helped improve surgical precision and patient outcomes. His work is widely cited by peers developing next-generation fluorescence agents and protocols, marking him as a key figure in the shift toward more targeted, minimally invasive hepatic interventions. For students and researchers, Di Mario exemplifies how translational research can directly enhance surgical decision-making and patient safety.
