About

Marianna V. Papageorge is a surgical oncologist whose research centers on minimally invasive approaches to complex gastrointestinal and thoracic cancers, with a particular focus on pancreatic and esophageal malignancies. Her work examines how emerging technologies—including robotic-assisted surgery and intraoperative fluorescence imaging—can improve patient outcomes while addressing critical questions of access and cost-effectiveness. Her most cited paper, "Trends in access to minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic cancers" (2023, 8 citations), investigates disparities in the adoption of advanced surgical techniques for pancreatic cancer, highlighting barriers to equitable care. In "Intraoperative fluorescence imaging in esophagectomy and its application to the robotic platform" (2022, 4 citations), she explores how real-time imaging can enhance surgical precision during robotic esophagectomy, potentially reducing complications. Her comparative analysis of video-assisted versus robotic-assisted thymectomy (2022, 1 citation) demonstrates her commitment to evaluating both clinical outcomes and economic implications of surgical innovation. Dr. Papageorge’s research bridges technological advancement with health equity, making her a valuable voice in the ongoing evolution of minimally invasive oncologic surgery.
