About
Maria Michela Di Nuzzo is a leading surgical researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive techniques in colorectal oncology, with a particular focus on rectal cancer surgery. Her major contribution lies in pioneering the intraoperative use of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging to enhance real-time visualization during complex procedures. Her landmark 2021 paper, "Intraoperative use of indocyanine green fluorescence imaging in rectal cancer surgery: The state of the art," has garnered 52 citations, establishing her as a key voice in this rapidly evolving field. Di Nuzzo’s research demonstrates how ICG fluorescence optimizes surgical vision by improving the detection of tumor margins, lymph nodes, and vascular perfusion—critical factors in reducing recurrence and preserving function. By integrating this technology with robotic and transanal approaches, she has helped redefine standards for precision in rectal surgery. Her work not only advances optical systems but also bridges the gap between innovation and practical application, offering surgeons a powerful tool to improve patient outcomes. For students and researchers, Di Nuzzo exemplifies how targeted technological integration can transform surgical practice, making her a pivotal figure in modern colorectal surgery.
