About

Andrew Dennison is a leading researcher at the intersection of surgical robotics and interventional radiology, with a focus on developing next-generation platforms for minimally invasive procedures. His work addresses two critical challenges: enhancing precision in multi-robot surgery and enabling real-time MRI-guided interventions. Dennison’s 2020 study on a teleoperated multi-robot platform for minimally invasive surgery (19 citations) validated a novel system that empowers surgeons with superior dexterity, marking a significant step toward widespread clinical adoption of multi-robot surgery. More recently, his 2021 work on a body-mounted robotic system for MRI-guided shoulder arthrography (14 citations) introduced a compact, nonmagnetic robot designed specifically for pediatric patients. This innovation transforms the cumbersome two-step arthrography process into a streamlined, single-session procedure under live MRI guidance, dramatically improving accuracy and patient comfort. Dennison’s contributions are pivotal in bridging the gap between robotic engineering and clinical workflow, with his patient-mounted design offering a new paradigm for MRI-compatible interventions. His work continues to shape the future of precision surgery, earning recognition for its technical rigor and direct translational impact.
