About
Ruslan Korets is a leading figure in urologic surgical education and the integration of robotic technology into clinical practice. His research centers on validating simulation tools for robotic surgery training, assessing postoperative outcomes after robot-assisted procedures, and understanding how surgical platforms influence skill acquisition. In a landmark 2011 study (89 citations), Korets validated the Mimic dV-Trainer for robotic skill acquisition among urology residents, establishing a benchmark for simulation-based training. He further demonstrated that the da Vinci system eliminates the effect of hand dominance in surgical trainees (31 citations), a finding with profound implications for training protocols. Korets also investigated clinical outcomes, showing that robot-assisted radical prostatectomy is associated with manageable postoperative pain and analgesic use (55 citations), and that hospital acquisition of a robotic platform increases the use of partial nephrectomy (11 citations). His work on the impact of fatigue on surgical performance (20 citations) and novel simulation tools (49 citations) continues to shape how urology residents are trained. With over 300 cumulative citations, Korets has advanced both the science and practice of robotic urologic surgery.
