About

Rohit Singla is a leading researcher in the field of augmented reality (AR) for minimally invasive surgery, with a primary focus on improving outcomes in laparoscopic and robot-assisted partial nephrectomy. His work addresses a critical challenge in these procedures: the surgeon's limited field of view and reduced depth perception, which can make it difficult to locate endophytic tumors and avoid complications. Singla’s major contributions include the development of the projector-based augmented reality intracorporeal system (PARIS), a novel intraoperative tool that projects AR guidance directly onto the surgical field. This system, combined with laparoscopic ultrasound, provides real-time, intuitive spatial information to the surgeon. His most-cited paper, "Intra‐operative ultrasound‐based augmented reality guidance for laparoscopic surgery" (2017, 31 citations), highlights the potential of his approach to reduce the high complication rate (47%) associated with complex tumor excisions. Singla’s innovative work, with over 60 total citations, is paving the way for safer, more effective surgical interventions and has been recognized as a significant advancement in surgical technology.
