About
Dr. Licinio Angelini is a pioneering figure in the fields of telerobotic surgery and computer-assisted medical interventions. His most significant contributions lie at the intersection of robotics, telecommunications, and minimally invasive surgery. Dr. Angelini was instrumental in the first transatlantic telerobotic surgery experiment, conducted on July 7, 1993, between the Politecnico di Milano and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. This landmark achievement, detailed in his 1993 and 1996 papers (with 13 and 28 citations, respectively), demonstrated the feasibility of remote laparoscopic surgery using satellite and optical fiber networks, fundamentally advancing the concept of telemedicine. His work on a computer-assisted robotic ultrasound-guided biopsy system for video-assisted surgery (39 citations) further showcases his commitment to enhancing surgical precision and patient outcomes. Through these pioneering efforts, Dr. Angelini has not only contributed foundational knowledge to surgical robotics but also inspired a generation of researchers to explore the global potential of telerobotic applications.
