About
Giuseppe Casaceli is a leading figure in the surgical treatment of drug-resistant epilepsy, with his work centered on advancing stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) and robotic-assisted neurosurgery. His seminal paper, “Stereoelectroencephalography” (2012), with over 520 citations, provides a modern methodological framework for this critical presurgical evaluation technique, revitalizing the classic Talairach and Bancaud approach. Building on this, his systematic review on SEEG electrode implantation (2016, 132 citations) established a comprehensive benchmark for technical standards and safety. A key innovation is his development of the Neurolocate frameless registration system for robot-assisted intracranial surgery; his 2017 study (120 citations) demonstrated its accuracy is comparable to traditional frame-based methods, significantly streamlining workflow. Casaceli has also explored haptic feedback and impedance control for safer brain targeting during open-skull procedures. Through these contributions—spanning from foundational methodology to cutting-edge robotics—he has directly enhanced the precision, safety, and accessibility of epilepsy surgery, making a lasting impact on the field.
