About
Arnaud F. Bewley is a head and neck surgical oncologist whose work sits at the cutting edge of intraoperative imaging technology and robotic surgery. His research has focused primarily on fluorescence lifetime imaging (FLIm) as a transformative tool for real-time tumor margin assessment during oral and oropharyngeal cancer surgery — a clinical challenge where precision is critical to patient outcomes. Bewley has been instrumental in integrating FLIm with the da Vinci robotic surgical platform, demonstrating that label-free, time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy can meaningfully distinguish cancerous from healthy tissue without the need for exogenous contrast agents. His landmark studies, including a 2020 paper garnering 88 citations and a 2019 augmented reality guidance study with 87 citations, have established FLIm as a clinically viable intraoperative decision-support tool. He has further extended this work to detect occult primary tumors in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma of unknown primary origin. Beyond imaging innovation, Bewley contributes to otology and neurotology education and oropharyngeal reconstructive techniques following robotic resection, reflecting a broad and clinically grounded surgical research portfolio.
