About
R. Coelho is a pioneering robotic surgeon whose work has significantly advanced the field of urologic oncology, particularly in the refinement of nerve-sparing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. His most cited research, published in 2015, introduced the innovative use of intra-operative indocyanine green and Firefly® fluorescence imaging to visualize the “landmark artery” during prostate cancer surgery. This technique enhances surgical precision by allowing real-time identification of critical vascular structures, thereby improving functional outcomes and preserving erectile function post-operatively. Coelho’s contributions have been cited over 7 times, reflecting their impact on surgical practice and patient quality of life. His work stands out for its translational value, bridging advanced imaging technology with clinical application to reduce complications. By integrating fluorescence-guided surgery into routine robotic procedures, Coelho has helped set a new standard for minimally invasive prostate cancer treatment, earning recognition among peers for his dedication to improving surgical safety and outcomes.
