About
Dr. S. Lenger is a pioneering surgeon-researcher whose work focuses on enhancing patient safety in complex pelvic surgery, particularly through the innovative application of intraoperative imaging technologies. Her major contributions center on the use of indocyanine green (ICG) for real-time ureteral mapping, a technique designed to reduce the risk of iatrogenic urinary tract injuries—a known complication in gynecologic procedures with reported rates up to 1.5%. By developing and validating this fluorescence-guided approach, Dr. Lenger directly addresses a critical challenge in surgical oncology and reconstructive pelvic surgery, where distorted anatomy from prior surgery, malignancy, or infection elevates injury risk. Her most-cited work, "Indocyanine Green Ureteral Mapping in Complex Pelvic Surgery" (2025), has already garnered attention for its potential to transform intraoperative decision-making. Dr. Lenger’s research not only advances surgical precision but also underscores a commitment to translating engineering principles into clinical practice, making her a leading voice in the movement toward safer, more reproducible outcomes in high-stakes pelvic procedures.
