About
Hamid Moradi is a leading researcher at the intersection of robotics, medical imaging, and surgical guidance, with a primary focus on advancing prostate cancer surgery. His work centers on integrating photoacoustic imaging with the da Vinci surgical robot to provide real-time, intraoperative visualization of critical structures, such as the cavernous nerve network, during robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy. Moradi’s major contributions include the development of the first integrated real-time surgical guidance system that co-registers an endoscope camera with a transrectal ultrasound transducer using novel photoacoustic markers, a breakthrough demonstrated ex vivo. His research also addresses key challenges in robot-assisted imaging, including configuration evaluation, virtual fixture implementation, and automatic marker search. With his most-cited review on robot-assisted medical imaging garnering 94 citations, Moradi’s work has a growing impact, evidenced by over 180 total citations. His achievements include pioneering intra-operative prostate photoacoustic imaging and optimizing robotic surgery arm arrangements for platforms like Sinaflex, positioning him as a key innovator in image-guided, nerve-sparing robotic surgery.
