About
Claudia Kesch is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work sits at the dynamic intersection of robotic surgery, advanced imaging, and perioperative care. Her most recognized contribution—an augmented reality system integrating live ultrasound with preoperative MRI to guide robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (2019, 44 citations)—has positioned her as a pioneer in intraoperative visualization technology, a theme she has continued to develop through fused MRI-ultrasound guidance platforms. Her research spans prostate cancer staging and surgical precision, including investigations into PSMA PET/CT-based local staging, extraprostatic extension prediction, and Cerenkov luminescence imaging for intraoperative margin detection. Beyond oncological outcomes, Kesch has made notable contributions to surgical training, employing CUSUM analysis to assess learning curves in robotic partial nephrectomy, and to patient-centered care through prehabilitation programs that have evolved from on-site protocols to personalized mobile applications. Her systematic review on risk factors for ureteroenteric stricture further demonstrates her breadth across uro-oncological procedures. With a growing citation record and contributions spanning technology, outcomes research, and digital health, Kesch represents an emerging voice shaping the future of minimally invasive urology.
