About

Pietro Mascagni is a leading figure in the application of artificial intelligence to emergency and trauma surgery, with a particular focus on bridging the gap between technological innovation and clinical practice. His work centers on understanding how AI can be integrated into acute care settings, from decision support systems to intraoperative guidance. Mascagni’s most cited study, the ARIES Project, is an international web-based survey that systematically assessed the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of emergency surgeons regarding AI. This foundational work, which has garnered 3 citations, revealed critical insights into the readiness and barriers faced by clinicians, shaping subsequent efforts to design AI tools that are both practical and trusted. Beyond this, Mascagni has contributed to the development of AI-driven platforms for surgical workflow analysis and safety enhancement. His research is notable for its global, collaborative approach, involving multiple centers and diverse surgical teams. By identifying the human factors essential for AI adoption, Mascagni is helping to ensure that emerging technologies truly serve the needs of surgeons and patients in high-stakes emergency environments.
