About
Y. Nagano is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics and neuroendovascular medicine, with work focused on developing intelligent robotic systems to transform the treatment of intracranial aneurysms and related cerebrovascular conditions. Nagano's most significant contribution is the design and experimental validation of sensory-motor feedback robots that enable surgeons to perform complex endovascular procedures with enhanced precision and safety. A landmark achievement includes conducting what is recognized as the world's first remote catheter surgery experiment using an endovascular intervention support robot, published in 2021, demonstrating the real-world feasibility of telesurgery in this domain. Earlier work on mechanical coil insertion systems addressed the critical challenge of delivering consistent, controlled force during coil embolization — a problem with direct implications for patient outcomes. More recently, Nagano has advanced force-sensing technologies to enable master-slave robotic control while simultaneously reducing cumulative radiation exposure for surgical teams. With a growing citation record spanning over 50 references across key publications, Nagano's research is steadily shaping the future of robotic neuroendovascular therapy, offering new possibilities for remote, precise, and safer neurovascular interventions.
