About
Rikke Groth Olsen is a leading researcher in the field of robotic surgery, with a focus on skills transfer, surgical training, and the implementation of novel robotic systems. Her work primarily explores the transition between surgical platforms, such as from the DaVinci® to the Hugo™ RAS system, and the impact of these transitions on surgical teams and patient outcomes. Olsen’s major contributions include demonstrating the safety and feasibility of the Hugo™ system for endometriosis surgery and validating simulation-based tests for robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Her research has garnered significant attention, with her most-cited paper, "Skills transfer from the DaVinci® system to the Hugo™ RAS system," accumulating 29 citations. She has also advanced the field by developing methods to assess surgical competence through automated performance metrics and surgical gestures, as seen in her 2024 studies. Notably, Olsen’s work on the role of robotic nurses and the use of 3D monitors in surgical performance highlights her commitment to optimizing both technical and team-based aspects of robotic surgery. Her findings are instrumental in shaping training protocols and improving surgical education for the next generation of robotic surgeons.
