About
Branislav Jaramaz is a pioneering researcher in computer-assisted orthopaedic surgery, with a career spanning over two decades at the intersection of medical imaging, surgical robotics, and clinical innovation. His foundational 1998 work on image-guided navigation for measuring acetabular implant alignment during total hip replacement — now cited over 400 times — addressed a critical gap in surgical precision by providing the first intraoperative tools capable of accounting for patient positioning and pelvic motion. Alongside complementary papers from the same year, which collectively garnered nearly 300 additional citations, Jaramaz helped establish computer-assisted surgery as a legitimate and transformative field in orthopaedics. His subsequent contributions shifted toward miniaturized robotic systems, including the bone-attached MBARS and HyBAR platforms, designed to bring robotic precision to minimally invasive joint arthroplasty. More recently, his work on handheld semi-autonomous robotic systems for total knee and unicondylar knee arthroplasty has demonstrated improved implant alignment accuracy in cadaveric studies, while also examining surgeon learning curves — underscoring his commitment to translating technology into practical clinical use. Jaramaz's body of work represents a sustained effort to make surgical robotics both precise and accessible.
