About
Marinus J. Hagens is a urological researcher whose work centers on improving outcomes for prostate cancer patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). His research spans three key areas: optimizing surgical techniques, refining post-operative follow-up, and enhancing diagnostic accuracy. Hagens made a significant contribution by developing a standardized method to measure the membranous urethral length (MUL) on MRI, achieving high inter- and intra-observer agreement (17 citations). He also demonstrated that functional outcomes, rather than complications, are the primary predictors of poor health-related quality of life six months after RARP (6 citations). His systematic review on quality assurance programs (4 citations) underscores his commitment to standardizing care. Notably, Hagens explored how PSMA PET/CT’s staging accuracy depends on lymph node tumor burden (4 citations), and he proposed optimized follow-up schemes to reduce healthcare burden (3 citations). His work on bladder neck incision outcomes, influenced by radiotherapy (9 citations), further highlights his focus on personalized, evidence-based urological care.
