About
Dr. Manju Rachel Mathew is a surgical pathologist whose research centers on intraoperative imaging and precision oncology, with a particular focus on improving outcomes in urologic cancer surgery. Her major contribution lies in advancing the clinical application of fluorescence confocal microscopy (FCM) as a real-time alternative to traditional frozen section analysis. In her landmark 2024 study on the LaserSAFE technique during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, Dr. Mathew demonstrated that FCM can accurately detect positive surgical margins with high inter-rater agreement, offering a faster, more reliable method for guiding surgical decision-making. This work, already garnering 19 citations, has significant implications for reducing positive margin rates and improving cancer control. Dr. Mathew’s research bridges the gap between cutting-edge imaging technology and practical surgical pathology, positioning her as a key figure in the evolution of intraoperative tissue assessment. Her dedication to rigorous validation and collaborative, multi-institutional studies underscores her commitment to translating novel diagnostic tools into tangible benefits for patients undergoing cancer surgery.
