About

Dr. Dario Tino Bertolone is a pioneering interventional cardiologist whose work is redefining the boundaries of robotic-assisted cardiovascular and percutaneous procedures. His primary research focuses on advancing minimally invasive robotic platforms to enhance procedural precision and safety in complex coronary and renovascular interventions. Dr. Bertolone’s major contributions include authoring the first-ever report of robotic-assisted renal denervation (2022, 4 citations), a landmark study demonstrating that robotic assistance can improve technical accuracy while significantly reducing radiation exposure—opening a new frontier in percutaneous interventions. He also led the first description of a totally robotically assisted hybrid coronary revascularization, combining robotic endoscopic MIDCAB with robotic percutaneous coronary intervention (R-PCI) (2022, 2 citations), showcasing the feasibility of a fully robotic “hybrid heart team” approach for multi-vessel disease. Though early in their citation history, these first-in-human reports have established foundational proof-of-concept for robotic platforms in interventional cardiology. Dr. Bertolone’s work is instrumental in shaping the future of robotic-assisted hybrid revascularization and targeted renal denervation, positioning him as a key innovator in the transition toward fully robotic cardiac and vascular care.
