Short Bio

Dr. Pascal Fallavollita is currently leading innovative research in computer assisted interventions, visualization and augmented reality at the Navigated Augmented Reality Visualization Systems (NARVIS) laboratory.

-

From 2008-2010, Dr. Fallavollita completed a postdoctoral fellowship in collaboration with the teams at Queen’s University, Canada (The Perk Lab) and the Johns Hopkins Medical School, USA (JHU). During this time, he led research work on multimodal image fusion between ultrasound and fluoroscopy/CT, implant segmentation and reconstruction, for the treatment of prostate cancer in brachytherapy interventions.

-

His ongoing interests are focused on providing solutions for the treatment of various procedures including but not limited to: (i) cardiac ablation, angioplasty in cardiology, (ii) interlocking of intramedullary nails, intra-op measurement of the mechanical axis deviation of lower limb, in orthopedics, and (iii) prostate brachytherapy in radiation therapy.

Future Bachelor, IDP, Masters and Ph.D students: I would be very honored and excited about the possibility of working with you. My mentorship philosophy involves providing guidance in solving current challenges inside the operating room by motivating the student to acquire knowledge from current literature. I challenge my student’s to disseminate their ideas and results via presentation and publication in the most prestigious conferences and journals. Students with strong academic qualifications are encouraged to submit formal applications to me.
