About
Yorihiko Koeda is a leading figure in the advancement of robotic-assisted percutaneous coronary intervention (R-PCI), with a focused expertise in integrating intravascular imaging to enhance procedural precision and safety. His major contributions center on demonstrating the feasibility and favorable outcomes of combining robotic systems with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) guidance. In his most cited work (2022, 16 citations), Koeda systematically evaluated periprocedural and 30-day outcomes of IVUS-guided R-PCI, providing critical evidence that this integrated approach is both safe and effective. He further validated these findings in a 2023 study (2 citations) confirming the utility of IVUS in preventing longitudinal geographic miss during robotic procedures. Koeda also pioneered the application of coronary intravascular lithotripsy within a robotic framework (2023, 3 citations), expanding the therapeutic scope of R-PCI to calcified lesions. Through these investigations, Koeda has established a robust foundation for image-guided robotic interventions, directly addressing key limitations of conventional PCI. His work is instrumental in shaping the next generation of minimally invasive, precision-driven coronary care, offering valuable insights for interventional cardiologists and researchers pursuing safer, more reproducible procedural outcomes.
