About

Dorothee Wasserberg is a pioneering researcher in the field of interventional medical robotics, specializing in the development of untethered magnetic robots (UMRs) for minimally invasive vascular procedures. Her work focuses on addressing critical challenges in endovascular surgery, particularly the precise navigation and control of tiny surgical instruments within narrow, delicate vessels. Wasserberg’s major contributions include the first ex vivo validation of magnetically actuated intravascular robots in a clinical setting (2024, 18 citations), demonstrating a significant step toward real-world application. She has also advanced wireless mechanical and hybrid thrombus fragmentation for treating blood clots in iliac arteries (2025, 3 citations), and pioneered X-ray-guided magnetic field control for UMRs in cerebral vascular phantoms (2024, 1 citation), targeting strokes and brain aneurysms. Her research promises to enhance surgical precision, reduce tissue damage, and improve patient outcomes in neurosurgery and interventional radiology.
