About
Allaire Doussan is a biomedical engineer whose research focuses on advancing intraoperative imaging and surgical guidance technologies, particularly for cancer surgery. Her most notable contribution is the development of a clinically feasible electrode array for three-dimensional electrical impedance tomography (EIT), designed to assess surgical margins in real time during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. This work, published in 2024 and already garnering 7 citations, introduces a compact, circular array of 33 gold-plated electrodes that can be deployed within the confined workspace of robotic surgery. By enabling EIT-based margin assessment, Doussan’s innovation addresses a critical unmet need in prostate cancer treatment—reducing positive surgical margins and improving patient outcomes. Her research sits at the intersection of medical device design, bioimpedance sensing, and surgical oncology, demonstrating a clear translational pathway from bench to operating room. Doussan’s work is particularly impactful for students and researchers interested in how engineering solutions can directly enhance surgical precision and cancer care.
