About

Mike Choti is a pioneering figure in the field of surgical oncology and robotic surgery, best known for his transformative work in minimally invasive techniques for hepatobiliary and pancreatic cancers. His research has centered on integrating advanced imaging and robotic platforms to enhance surgical precision and patient outcomes. Choti’s landmark contribution, the "DaVinci Canvas" system, introduced a telerobotic surgical platform with integrated laparoscopic ultrasound, a breakthrough that enabled real-time, high-resolution visualization during complex procedures. This work, cited over 130 times, laid the groundwork for modern robotic-assisted surgeries, particularly in liver and pancreatic resections. Beyond this, Choti has been instrumental in developing evidence-based protocols for colorectal liver metastases, significantly influencing global treatment standards. His clinical and academic impact is reflected in over 20,000 citations across his career, with numerous studies shaping surgical guidelines. A recipient of multiple awards for innovation and mentorship, Choti continues to drive the convergence of robotics, imaging, and oncology, making him a vital resource for students and researchers exploring the future of precision surgery.
