OverviewAI-generated summary

Soheila Korourian is a Professor in the Department of Pathology at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. Her research has focused on various aspects of breast cancer, including surgical techniques, diagnostic methods, and genetic factors influencing patient outcomes. She has investigated the oncologic safety of nipple-sparing mastectomies with immediate reconstruction and the use of touch preparations for intraoperative diagnosis of sentinel lymph node metastases. Her work has also explored the role of polymorphisms in glutathione S-transferases (GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1) in relation to survival after breast cancer treatment.

Korourian has also contributed to the understanding of lymphatic mapping and preservation during sentinel lymph node biopsy, examining concepts like subareolar versus peritumoral injection and axillary reverse mapping to identify and preserve lymphatic pathways. Her research has extended to other cancer types, including the identification of hepsin overexpression in ovarian cancer. She leads a research group and has a significant publication record, with 169 total publications and an h-index of 44, indicating high citation impact. She has collaborated with researchers including Reza Hakkak, Elisabet Børsheim, Nathan C. Twaddle, and Michael Scott Robeson.
