About

Maciej Pech is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of interventional oncology and medical robotics, whose work is reshaping the treatment of liver tumors and the future of autonomous medical systems. His most impactful contribution is the #HOPE4LIVER single-arm pivotal trial (2025, 30 citations), which established histotripsy—a noninvasive, non-thermal focused ultrasound technique that liquefies tissue—as a viable therapy for primary and metastatic liver tumors, offering patients a needle-free alternative to surgery or ablation. Beyond clinical oncology, Pech is advancing human-robot interaction in radiology. He developed a multimodal touchless interface for controlling robotic ultrasound (2022, 13 citations), enabling sterile, hands-free operation during procedures. His work on collision avoidance route planning using multiple depth cameras (2022, 9 citations) addresses a critical safety challenge for autonomous radiography systems. Most recently, his comparative study on collaborative robot manipulation (2025) explores intuitive interaction concepts that could make robotic assistance more accessible in clinical workflows. With a portfolio spanning from groundbreaking clinical trials to cutting-edge robotics, Pech is bridging the gap between therapeutic innovation and intelligent automation, making him a key figure in the next generation of precision medicine.
