About
Joseph Dycoco is a rising leader in interventional pulmonology, whose work is reshaping the diagnosis and treatment of thoracic malignancies. His research centers on robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (RAB), with a focus on optimizing procedural outcomes, reducing radiation exposure, and improving biomarker identification. Dycoco’s major contributions include characterizing the learning curve for RAB in high-volume academic centers, demonstrating that skill acquisition follows a predictable trajectory—a finding that has direct implications for training and patient safety. He also established the feasibility of shape-sensing robotic bronchoscopy for biomarker identification in lung cancer patients, a critical step toward personalized therapy. His work on radiation exposure during mobile cone-beam CT-guided RAB identified key determinants of dose, helping to minimize risk for both patients and staff. With over 60 citations across his most-cited papers, Dycoco’s impact is already notable early in his career. His 2024 studies on learning curves and radiation safety are particularly influential, offering practical guidance for institutions adopting robotic bronchoscopy. Dycoco’s research bridges technical innovation and clinical application, making him a key voice in the evolution of minimally invasive thoracic oncology.
