Dr González Rivas became the first surgeon in the world to perform uniportal VATS anatomical resections (first case in June 2010). This surgical technique (Uniportal VATS) is a pioneer in the world, as it allows the most complex tumours to be removed through a single incision. Dr. González Rivas, with more than 15 years of experience, leads different R&D projects that take into account the latest trends and research, including the following lines of work.
Machine vision (VA) is being used in the world of surgery to improve the accuracy and efficiency of operations, using image recognition and machine learning algorithms to help surgeons accurately identify and treat tumours and healthy tissue. In addition, VA is also being used to plan and guide surgical procedures and improve patient monitoring during and after surgery.
Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) are being used in the world of surgery to improve the efficiency and results of operations, thanks to the use of technologies such as image overlay and 3D modelling that allow surgeons to visualise important information in real time during surgery. In addition, it is also being used for surgeon training and education and simulates surgical operations before the actual ones are performed, improving knowledge, accuracy, speed and safety in the surgical procedure.
Within the lines of research, we are working on the development of nanoparticles and controlled release systems, which allow drugs to be transported and released directly at the tumour site, reducing side effects and increasing the efficacy of treatment.
The use of surgical robots provides highly precise, computer-controlled tools, allowing surgeons to perform procedures more accurately, minimising damage to surrounding tissue and reducing recovery times. In addition, it is also being used to perform surgical procedures that are difficult to do in the traditional way, as the robot has greater precision and reach than human hands.
