About
Nathan Perlis is a leading urologic oncologist and researcher whose work sits at the intersection of surgical innovation, medical education, and prostate cancer diagnostics. His key research areas include the optimization of prostate cancer detection through advanced imaging techniques and the assessment of how emerging technologies—such as video games—can improve surgical skills acquisition. Dr. Perlis is perhaps best known for his widely cited systematic review on the use of video games to enhance surgical skills among medical students, which has garnered 71 citations and sparked important conversations about nontraditional training modalities in surgery. He has also made significant contributions to the field of MRI-ultrasound fusion prostate biopsy, authoring a technical guide on the Fusion MR and Fusion Bx systems that provides step-by-step instruction for clinicians adopting this targeted biopsy approach. His work helps bridge the gap between radiology and urology, improving the precision of prostate cancer diagnosis. With a growing citation footprint and a reputation for translating complex techniques into accessible educational resources, Dr. Perlis continues to shape both the clinical practice and the training of future surgeons.
