About

Dr. Luca Reggiani Bonetti is pioneering the integration of cutting-edge optical technologies into urological surgery and diagnostics. His primary research focuses on the application of ex vivo fluorescence confocal microscopy (FCM) for real-time, digital pathological examination of prostatic tissue. He led the first-ever application of this novel technique in urology, demonstrating its diagnostic accuracy for both cancerous and non-neoplastic prostate conditions in a landmark 2019 study (85 citations). Building on this, Dr. Reggiani Bonetti developed the surgical technique for "digital frozen sections" during robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (53 citations), a method that allows for immediate microscopic feedback to enhance surgical precision. His work extends to robotics, where he contributed to the preclinical validation of a semi-autonomous robot for transperineal prostate biopsy (15 citations), aiming to improve the accuracy of cancer detection. By enabling remote interpretation of high-resolution digital images that mimic traditional histology, his innovations promise to streamline pathology workflows, reduce operative times, and ultimately improve oncologic and functional outcomes for prostate cancer patients.
