About

Marco Horn is pioneering the integration of robotics and ultrasound to transform vascular medicine. His research centers on robot-assisted diagnostic and therapeutic systems, with a primary focus on reducing radiation exposure for both patients and clinicians. In his landmark 2024 study, "Automatic robotic doppler sonography of leg arteries," Horn demonstrated a novel system capable of autonomously performing Doppler ultrasound of leg arteries—a breakthrough that could alleviate the burden on overstretched medical staff while eliminating harmful X-ray exposure. This work has already garnered 3 citations, signaling early recognition in the field. Expanding into interventional applications, his follow-up paper, "Robotic Assisted Ultrasound‐Guided Endovascular Stent Implantation in a Vascular Model," introduces a robotic platform for ultrasound-guided stent placement, offering a radiation-free alternative to traditional fluoroscopy. With 2 citations, this study showcases his ability to bridge diagnostic and therapeutic robotics. Horn’s contributions are particularly timely as healthcare systems seek safer, more efficient solutions for peripheral arterial disease management. His dual focus on automation and precision positions him as a rising innovator at the intersection of robotics, imaging, and vascular care.
