About
Alexandru Pusca is a pioneering researcher in the field of medical robotics, with a focused expertise in the development of innovative parallel robotic systems for minimally invasive surgery, particularly Single-Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS). His major contributions lie in the comprehensive design, modeling, and control of specialized surgical robots, such as the PARA-SILSROB, a 6-DOF parallel robot engineered to enhance precision and safety in SILS procedures. Pusca’s work uniquely integrates advanced technologies like virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) into surgical robotic systems, creating immersive simulators for training surgeons without patient risk. His research has garnered significant attention, with his most-cited paper, "Application Oriented Modelling and Simulation of an Innovative Parallel Robot for Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery," accumulating 14 citations, while his VR integration study has 11 citations. Notably, his systematic review on robot-assisted dental implant placement (2025) extends his impact into dental surgery, showcasing his versatility. Pusca’s achievements include geometric optimization and singularity analysis of parallel robots, as well as addressing critical safety issues in urological SILS. His work is instrumental in advancing robotic-assisted surgery, making procedures safer and more effective for patients and accessible for surgeons through cutting-edge simulation tools.
