About

F. Frosini is a researcher at the intersection of biomedical engineering, health technology assessment (HTA), and robotic surgery. Their work focuses on improving the safety, efficacy, and economic viability of robotic-assisted procedures, particularly in urology, general surgery, and liver resection. A key contribution is the development of an integrated HTA-FMEA/FMECA methodology for evaluating robotic systems, which systematically assesses risks and failures in surgical robotics—a framework cited 11 times for its practical impact on patient safety and process optimization. Frosini also designed a novel microwave applicator for laparoscopic and robotic liver resection, addressing critical bleeding during parenchyma transection (11 citations), and advanced cancer diagnostics with a mechatronic platform that uses stiffness and ultrasound measurements for ex-vivo nodule detection (12 citations combined). Their hospital-based economic assessment of robotic surgery (3 citations) underscores a commitment to cost-effectiveness analysis. By merging engineering innovation with clinical and economic evaluation, Frosini’s work directly supports safer, more efficient surgical technologies and automated diagnostic tools, making a tangible impact on modern surgical practice.
