About
Shi-Chen Fu is a pioneering researcher in advanced endoscopic surgery, with a focused expertise in robotic-assisted endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for gastrointestinal lesions. His major contributions center on developing and validating novel robotic platforms that overcome the technical limitations of conventional ESD, particularly the challenge of providing effective countertraction to expose the submucosal layer. Fu's work introduces flexible auxiliary single-arm transluminal robots and miniature transendoscopic telerobotic systems that enhance procedural safety, efficiency, and learning curves for novices. His most cited study, a randomized controlled porcine trial (26 citations), demonstrated the superiority of simplified robot-assisted ESD over standard techniques for esophageal and gastric lesions. Another influential paper (20 citations) showcased a flexible single-arm robot that significantly improves submucosal dissection. Notably, his prospective crossover ex vivo study (15 citations) proved that robot-assisted ESD enables safer and more efficient skill acquisition for novice endoscopists. With all key publications appearing in 2022-2023, Fu represents an emerging leader in therapeutic endoscopy, pushing the boundaries of minimally invasive gastrointestinal surgery through innovative telerobotic solutions.
