About
Dr. Rita Golfieri is a pioneering surgeon at the forefront of integrating augmented reality (AR) and three-dimensional (3D) virtual modeling into urologic oncology. Her primary research focuses on enhancing the precision of robotic-assisted surgeries for prostate and kidney cancers through real-time, image-guided interventions. Dr. Golfieri’s major contributions include demonstrating the clinical utility of AR-guided robotic radical prostatectomy, where her 2020 study (74 citations) showed significant improvements in surgical planning and intraoperative navigation. She further advanced the field by developing AR techniques to guide selective clamping and tumor dissection during partial nephrectomy (50 citations), and by using 3D virtual models to interpret nephrometry scores and predict complications (25 citations). Her work has been cited over 260 times, reflecting its profound impact on surgical oncology. Notably, she has pioneered the use of AR for intraoperative frozen section guidance during prostatectomy (61 citations), a novel approach that enhances real-time decision-making. Dr. Golfieri’s innovative integration of digital technology with robotic surgery is reshaping precision oncology, offering patients safer, more effective treatments for renal and prostate malignancies.
