About
Dr. Yufang Leng is a pioneering surgeon-scientist whose work centers on advancing fluorescence-guided hepatobiliary surgery. Her research focuses on the clinical application of indocyanine green (ICG) imaging—a technique that leverages the dye’s near-infrared fluorescence, selectively absorbed by the liver and excreted into the biliary system, to illuminate critical anatomy in real time. Her most-cited paper, “Application of indocyanine green fluorescence imaging in hepatobiliary surgery” (2024, 23 citations), synthesizes the transformative potential of this technology, demonstrating how it enhances precision in complex procedures like cholecystectomy and liver resection. By reducing bile duct injuries and improving tumor margin detection, Dr. Leng’s contributions have directly influenced intraoperative decision-making and patient safety. Her work bridges the gap between optical engineering and clinical practice, earning recognition as a key resource for surgeons adopting fluorescence laparoscopy. With a growing citation impact and a focus on translating molecular imaging into routine surgical workflows, Dr. Leng is shaping the future of minimally invasive hepatobiliary care.
