About
Chun Wah So is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on improving surgical precision and outcomes in prostate cancer care. His primary research areas include intraoperative surgical margin assessment, confocal laser microscopy, and the development of novel techniques to reduce positive margins during radical prostatectomy. So’s major contribution is the introduction of the LaserSAFE technique, a real-time, confocal laser microscopy-based method for evaluating surgical margins during prostate removal. In his 2025 feasibility study, he demonstrated that LaserSAFE could be performed with high diagnostic accuracy, offering a potential alternative to the established NeuroSAFE technique. This work, already cited twice, lays the groundwork for a larger multicentre trial and represents a significant step toward more precise, nerve-sparing surgery. So’s research directly addresses a critical challenge in urologic oncology: balancing complete cancer resection with preservation of functional outcomes. His innovative approach has the potential to reduce reoperation rates and improve quality of life for prostate cancer patients, marking him as a rising figure in surgical technology and translational urology.
