About
Luca Molinaro is a pioneering researcher in the field of urologic oncology, with a specialized focus on the integration of advanced imaging and robotic surgery for prostate cancer management. His most impactful work centers on the development of robot-assisted PSMA-radioguided surgery, a technique that combines prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) targeting with intraoperative PET-CT specimen imaging to achieve unprecedented precision in tumor resection. In his landmark 2023 study, Molinaro demonstrated the feasibility of this approach in assessing surgical margins and detecting nodal metastases in prostate cancer patients, reporting on three cases that showcased its potential to reduce positive margins and improve staging accuracy. With 12 citations, this work has already influenced surgical protocols, highlighting his role in bridging nuclear medicine and robotics. Molinaro’s contributions are reshaping the standard of care, offering a real-time, molecularly guided solution to one of oncology’s greatest challenges: ensuring complete tumor removal while preserving healthy tissue. His research stands at the forefront of precision surgery, promising better outcomes for patients through the synergy of cutting-edge technology and targeted radiopharmaceuticals.
