About

Yiwei Jiang is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotic surgery, advanced imaging, and autonomous surgical systems. Their work centers on enhancing intraoperative visualization and automation in minimally invasive procedures, with a focus on integrating novel imaging modalities and intelligent tool tracking into robotic platforms. A standout contribution is the development of FlexiVision, an automatic control system for flexible endoscopes that corrects misorientation between the endoscopic view and the surgeon’s perspective, enabling more intuitive teleoperation. Jiang has also been instrumental in integrating photoacoustic (PA) imaging—a modality combining ultrasound penetration with optical contrast—into the da Vinci surgical system, achieving intraoperative guidance that enhances tissue differentiation. Their research on markerless, deep learning-based suture needle tracking from robotic endoscopes addresses a critical need for autonomous task execution. With over 50 citations across key publications, including works in *Biomedical Optics Express* and *IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters*, Jiang’s contributions are shaping the next generation of context-aware, image-guided surgical robots. Their work promises to make surgery safer, more precise, and increasingly autonomous.
