About
Karyn A. Goodman is a leading radiation oncologist whose research focuses on integrating advanced radiotherapy techniques with surgical and systemic therapies for gastrointestinal and gynecologic malignancies. Her major contributions include pioneering the use of robotically assisted laparoscopic ovarian transposition to preserve fertility in women with lower gastrointestinal cancers undergoing pelvic radiotherapy, a technique detailed in her 2016 paper (19 citations) that has become a standard approach for young patients. Goodman’s work has significantly improved treatment outcomes by minimizing radiation toxicity to healthy tissues while maximizing tumor control, with her studies collectively cited over 1,000 times. She has also been instrumental in developing stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for pancreatic cancer and investigating novel radiosensitizers. A prolific researcher and educator, Goodman has served as Vice Chair of Clinical Research at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and has received multiple awards for her contributions to radiation oncology, including the RSNA Research Scholar Grant. Her translational research bridges the gap between laboratory discoveries and clinical practice, offering hope to patients with challenging cancers.
