About this Research Topic
Surgical innovation and intraoperative technology are rapidly advancing fields with the potential to dramatically improve patient outcomes in urology-oncology. Novel techniques and devices promise to enhance cancer detection, reduce complications, shorten recovery times, and improve surgeons’ capabilities in the operating room. This Research Topic will explore state-of-the-art developments in augmented reality, robotics, fluorescence imaging, intraoperative use of artificial intelligence, pathology real time diagnosis and other emerging platforms that stand to revolutionize procedures.
For this Topic, we aim to compile and explore cutting-edge research and developments in novel intraoperative tools and technologies with the potential to transform and improve urology-oncology surgery, to provide a holistic overview of the innovative landscape and accelerate the translation of new techniques and devices into widespread clinical practice. By covering emerging augmented reality, robotics, imaging, and other platforms, the goal is to highlight technological advances that can enhance precision, safety, efficiency, cancer detection, and patient outcomes for procedures.
We are looking for mainly prospective studies or systematic reviews on the use of new devices. We welcome studies based on
• Augmented reality for robotic surgery
• Pathology platforms for real time intraoperative diagnosis
• Microscopy imaging
• Artificial intelligence in real time surgery
• Fluorescence imaging
Selected retrospective studies will be considered. Authors should contact the topic editors before submitting retrospective series.
