About
Chim Lee Cheung is a leading figure in the field of surgical robotics, with a focused expertise in MRI-guided interventions and mechatronic design for neurosurgery. His most impactful work centers on the development of compact, MR-safe robotic systems that can operate within the tight spatial constraints of standard imaging head coils. Cheung’s major contribution is the engineering of a hydraulic driving robot for bilateral stereotactic neurosurgery, a design that overcomes the critical challenge of maintaining high performance and safety within the powerful magnetic field of an intraoperative MRI. This pioneering work, detailed in his 2018 paper which has garnered 65 citations, demonstrates a novel approach to creating MR-compatible actuators, enabling precise, real-time image-guided procedures without compromising patient access or imaging quality. By solving the fundamental problem of robotic actuation in an MRI environment, Cheung’s research has paved the way for more accurate, less invasive stereotactic surgeries, significantly impacting the field of image-guided therapy and setting a new standard for compact, hydraulically-driven surgical robots.
