About
Dr. Barbara Fiamengo is a pioneering gynecologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive surgical techniques for uterine malignancies. Her major contributions lie in the refinement of sentinel lymph node mapping using indocyanine green (ICG) and near-infrared fluorescence imaging, particularly through integration with the Da Vinci Xi robotic system. In her landmark 2016 study, she demonstrated the feasibility and precision of this approach for uterine cancers, achieving high detection rates while reducing the morbidity associated with traditional lymphadenectomy. This work, cited 13 times, has helped establish a new standard for intraoperative lymphatic assessment, improving both staging accuracy and patient recovery. Dr. Fiamengo’s research bridges surgical innovation and clinical oncology, offering tangible benefits in real-time tumor visualization and targeted therapy. Her achievements underscore a commitment to translating cutting-edge technology into safer, more effective cancer care—a vital contribution for students and clinicians alike exploring the future of robotic-assisted surgery.
