About
Simone Lodi is a pioneering surgeon-researcher at the forefront of integrating augmented reality (AR) into robotic urologic surgery. His work centers on developing real-time, three-dimensional guidance systems that transform complex oncologic procedures. Lodi’s major contributions include the first clinical applications of AR to guide robotic radical prostatectomy, where his 2020 study (74 citations) demonstrated how 3D overlays improve surgical planning and precision. He further advanced the field by using AR to direct intraoperative frozen section analysis during prostatectomy (61 citations) and to enable selective clamping and tumor dissection in partial nephrectomy (50 citations). His most innovative work involves stereoscopic augmented reality (SAR), which provides surgeons with true depth perception during robotic procedures. Collectively, his research has accumulated over 190 citations, establishing him as a leader in surgical visualization technology. Lodi’s achievements have been recognized at major urology and robotics conferences, where his demonstrations of AR-guided surgery have been met with acclaim. His work promises to make robotic surgery safer, more precise, and more accessible by giving surgeons unprecedented intraoperative insight.
