About

Daniel Alsoof is a rising researcher whose work sits at the intersection of spine surgery, robotics, and healthcare economics. His primary focus is on the clinical implementation and evaluation of robotic-assisted spine surgery, with a particular emphasis on pedicle screw placement—a technically demanding procedure where precision is paramount. Alsoof’s major contributions include documenting the development of a robotic spine surgery program, providing a roadmap for institutions adopting this technology, and critically analyzing how surgical specialty (orthopedic vs. neurological) influences treatment trends, techniques, and costs for adult deformity surgery. His work has garnered over 20 citations, with his 2022 paper on program development serving as a foundational reference for centers establishing similar robotic capabilities. Notably, his region-specific study on robotic spine surgery in Rhode Island highlights local adoption patterns and practical implementation challenges. By combining technical analysis with health services research, Alsoof offers a comprehensive view of how robotics is reshaping spine surgery—from the operating room to hospital budgeting.
