About
Manoj Mathew is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving the precision of cancer surgery through advanced imaging technologies. His primary research focus is the intraoperative assessment of surgical margins during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, a critical step in ensuring complete tumor removal while preserving healthy tissue. Mathew’s most notable contribution is his pioneering evaluation of fluorescence confocal microscopy (FCM) for real-time detection of positive surgical margins. In a landmark 2024 study, he led a blind assessment of FCM’s accuracy, demonstrating its potential to provide immediate, high-resolution feedback to surgeons—a breakthrough that could reduce the need for secondary procedures and improve oncologic outcomes. While his work is still emerging, with his key paper accruing 2 citations, its clinical relevance is underscored by its focus on inter-rater agreement, establishing a foundation for standardized use of FCM in the operating room. Mathew’s research bridges pathology and surgical practice, offering a tangible step toward personalized, image-guided cancer care. His contributions are particularly valuable for trainees and clinicians seeking to integrate novel diagnostic tools into routine surgical workflows.
