Strategic objectives 

  • Development of protocols for the application of virtual planning techniques in different types of surgery.
  • Development of computer-assisted systems for the verification of surgical results after treatment of tumors, deformities and trauma, especially in the cranio-maxillofacial area.
  • Implementation of 3D printing techniques for models and bio-printing with the aim of improving tissue regeneration and repair techniques, especially at the level of the bone skeleton.
  • Development of algorithms for clinical and radiological image evaluation with artificial intelligence techniques to improve the diagnosis of pathology in the craniofacial region.

Research lines

  1. Computerized image-based surgical simulation, including virtual reality.
  2. Automated intraoperative verification of surgical outcome based on digital imaging.
  3. Personalized craniofacial reconstructive surgery: virtual designs and 3D printing.
  4. Application of artificial intelligence (AI) in early diagnosis and outcomes in head and neck cancer.
  5. Innovative techniques for tissue regeneration and repair.
