 Overview
Dr. Bonfiglio's research activity has focused on gynecologic and cytopathology, with a particular interest in the adaptation of new technologies to cytologic diagnosis. He has been involved in the development of automated screening and other imaging devices, and in the evaluation of new uses for minimally-invasive fine needle aspirates for cancer diagnosis.
