About

Simone Parrini is a leading researcher in computer-assisted medical interventions, specializing in magnetic navigation, robotic platforms, and augmented reality systems for vascular procedures. Her work focuses on developing innovative technologies to improve the precision and safety of endovascular treatments, particularly for cardiovascular diseases—the world’s leading cause of death. Parrini’s major contributions include the creation of an augmented reality system for freehand guidance of magnetic endovascular devices (12 citations), which enhances the targeting of therapeutic microparticles in the arterial tree while reducing side effects. She also co-developed the MicroVAST platform, a computer-assisted robotic system that integrates 3D ultrasound-based tracking for intravascular procedures (10 citations), combining magnetic navigation with real-time imaging to enable more accurate and minimally invasive interventions. Her research has been recognized for its potential to transform clinical practice, offering new solutions for treating complex vascular conditions. With a focus on translational impact, Parrini’s work continues to push the boundaries of medical robotics and image-guided therapy, making her a notable figure in the field of biomedical engineering.
