About

Dr. Ron Ron Cheng is a colorectal surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on advancing surgical precision through fluorescence-guided imaging. His primary research areas include minimally invasive colorectal surgery, intraoperative ureteral identification, and the application of indocyanine green (ICG) to reduce iatrogenic injuries. Dr. Cheng’s most notable contribution is his pioneering study on the feasibility of injected ICG for real-time ureteral visualization during robotic left-sided colorectal resections—a technique that significantly enhances safety by helping surgeons avoid ureteral damage in complex pelvic dissections. This 2021 paper, with 31 citations, has already influenced operative protocols and sparked further investigation into near-infrared fluorescence imaging in colorectal surgery. Beyond this landmark work, Dr. Cheng is recognized for integrating robotic platforms with novel contrast agents to improve surgical outcomes. His research bridges the gap between technological innovation and clinical practice, offering tangible benefits for patient safety. For students and researchers, Dr. Cheng’s work exemplifies how targeted translational research can address critical surgical challenges, making complex procedures safer and more reproducible.
