About
Dr. Beatrice Paoli is a leading surgical oncologist whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive techniques for gastric cancer treatment, particularly through robotic surgery and intraoperative imaging. Her major contributions center on improving the precision and outcomes of gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy, a technically demanding procedure. In a landmark 2016 study comparing robotic and laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (62 citations), she demonstrated that the robotic platform can overcome the limitations of conventional laparoscopy, offering enhanced dexterity and visualization. Dr. Paoli has pioneered the use of near-infrared fluorescence imaging with indocyanine green for real-time lymph node mapping during robotic surgery. Her 2019 matched cohort study (79 citations) established the clinical value of this technique, showing it improves the accuracy of lymphadenectomy and potentially reduces complications. Through her pilot studies, she has refined protocols for intraoperative lymphatic mapping, enabling more precise staging and tailored resections. With over 140 cumulative citations, Dr. Paoli’s work is shaping the next generation of gastric cancer surgery, merging technological innovation with tangible clinical benefits. Her contributions are essential reading for surgeons and researchers seeking to optimize robotic approaches and integrate advanced imaging into oncologic practice.
