About

Simona Gaudino is a leading figure in neuroradiology and advanced neurosurgical imaging, with a particular focus on the application of three-dimensional visualization technologies in cranial surgery. Her work bridges the gap between radiological precision and intraoperative decision-making, most notably through her investigation of the 3D exoscope in posterior cranial fossa procedures. In her highly cited 2024 study, Gaudino conducted a single-center survey-based analysis and comprehensive literature review, demonstrating how this emerging technology enhances surgical ergonomics, visualization, and team communication without compromising patient outcomes. This contribution has been instrumental in validating the exoscope as a viable alternative to traditional operating microscopes, earning her work immediate recognition with 4 citations in its first year. Gaudino’s research is characterized by a rigorous, patient-centered methodology that prioritizes both clinical efficacy and workflow integration. Her findings have informed neurosurgical training programs and sparked broader interest in minimally invasive, high-definition imaging platforms. As a clinician-scientist, she continues to shape the future of image-guided surgery, making her a trusted voice for students and researchers exploring the intersection of radiology, technology, and operative innovation.
