About

Dr. Bei Zhou is a clinical researcher specializing in neurosurgical interventions for craniofacial pain disorders, with a particular focus on primary trigeminal neuralgia. Her major contribution lies in advancing the precision and safety of percutaneous balloon compression (PBC), a minimally invasive procedure for this debilitating condition. In her landmark 2022 study, Zhou demonstrated that robot-assisted PBC significantly improves the one-time puncture success rate compared to conventional C-arm-guided techniques, reducing procedural risks and enhancing patient outcomes. Although her most-cited paper has garnered 4 citations to date, its clinical relevance is growing as robotic assistance gains traction in neurosurgery. Zhou’s work addresses a critical gap in pain management by minimizing complications such as puncture failure and poor prognosis, offering a safer alternative for patients unresponsive to medication. Her research underscores the potential of integrating robotic systems into routine neurosurgical practice, positioning her as an emerging voice in the field of image-guided pain interventions. For students and researchers, Zhou’s findings highlight the importance of technological innovation in refining established surgical techniques.
