About
Caterina Gaudiano is a pioneering urologic surgeon whose work sits at the intersection of advanced imaging, augmented reality (AR), and robotic surgery. Her research focuses on leveraging three-dimensional virtual modeling to enhance surgical precision in prostate and kidney cancer procedures. Gaudiano’s major contributions include demonstrating how multiparametric MRI can guide nerve-sparing during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (87 citations) and developing real-time AR systems that overlay 3D reconstructions onto the surgical field—work that has reshaped preoperative planning and intraoperative decision-making. Her 2020 paper on AR-guided robotic radical prostatectomy (74 citations) and subsequent studies on AR for frozen section guidance (61 citations) and selective clamping during partial nephrectomy (50 citations) have been widely adopted. More recently, she has pioneered stereoscopic AR and PSMA-PET-guided lymph node dissection, pushing the boundaries of precision oncology. With over 300 total citations across her most-cited works, Gaudiano’s research is not only technically innovative but clinically impactful, offering surgeons a roadmap to better outcomes through enhanced visualization. Her work stands as a model for how digital tools can transform complex oncologic surgery.
