About

Constance Maglaras is a rising orthopedic researcher whose work focuses on advancing spinal fusion techniques, particularly through comparative analyses of surgical guidance technologies. Her most-cited study, "Comparison of freehand, fluoro-guided, CT navigation, and robot-guided TLIF and ALIF" (2020), systematically evaluates the accuracy and outcomes of four approaches—freehand, fluoroscopy, CT navigation, and robotic assistance—in transforaminal and anterior lumbar interbody fusion. This work provides critical evidence for surgeons weighing precision versus practicality in minimally invasive spine surgery. While her citation count is still building, Maglaras’s contribution lies in synthesizing data that directly informs clinical decision-making, helping to reduce complications and improve patient recovery. Her research bridges the gap between emerging robotic technologies and established methods, offering a roadmap for integrating innovation into routine practice. As the field increasingly prioritizes personalized, technology-driven care, Maglaras’s comparative framework serves as a foundational resource for both trainees and experienced surgeons seeking to optimize spinal fusion outcomes.
