About

Dr. Linda Alpuing Radilla is a pioneering robotic surgeon whose research focuses on advancing minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, particularly for complex endometriosis. Her major contributions center on intraoperative ureteral identification using indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence—a technique that dramatically reduces the risk of urinary tract injury during challenging procedures. In her 2025 study comparing junior versus senior surgeons performing fluorescence-guided ureteral identification in robotic surgery for advanced endometriosis (7 citations), she demonstrated that this technology can safely guide surgeons of all experience levels through severe pelvic adhesive disease. Her 2024 work on exploring ICG fluorescence feasibility in robotic transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopy surgery (RvNOTES) during endometriosis resection (7 citations) further expands the boundaries of scarless surgery. By systematically evaluating how fluorescence imaging can prevent incidental ureteral injury—a devastating complication—Dr. Radilla is establishing evidence-based protocols that enhance surgical safety. Her research bridges the gap between innovative imaging technology and practical surgical application, offering trainees and experienced surgeons alike a reliable method to navigate anatomically distorted pelvises. Through her work, Dr. Radilla is not only improving outcomes for endometriosis patients but also shaping the future of robotic-assisted gynecologic surgery.
