About
Kathleen Kearney is a pioneering interventional cardiologist whose research focuses on advancing the treatment of complex coronary artery disease, particularly chronic total occlusions (CTOs). She is best known for her groundbreaking work in robotic-assisted percutaneous coronary intervention, where she has demonstrated the safety and feasibility of using robotic systems to navigate the most challenging blockages. Her landmark study, "Initial Report of Safety and Feasibility of Robotic-Assisted Chronic Total Occlusion Coronary Intervention," published in 2019, laid the foundation for integrating robotics into high-risk CTO procedures, offering patients a less invasive option with enhanced precision. While her citation count is still growing, reflecting the emerging nature of this field, her contributions have already shaped clinical protocols and inspired a new generation of researchers to explore robotic applications in cardiology. Dr. Kearney’s work bridges engineering and medicine, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in revascularization and improving outcomes for patients with the most difficult-to-treat coronary lesions.
