About
Farman Hedayat is a leading researcher in spinal surgery, with a focused expertise in the comparative effectiveness of robotic guidance, computer-assisted navigation, and conventional freehand techniques for thoracolumbar spinal fusion. His major contribution is the design and implementation of the EUROSPIN study, a landmark multicentre prospective observational protocol that systematically evaluates pedicle screw revision rates across these three surgical modalities. This work addresses a critical gap in evidence-based spine surgery, providing a rigorous framework to determine whether advanced technologies meaningfully reduce the need for revision surgery compared to traditional freehand placement. With his most-cited paper accumulating 20 citations, Hedayat’s research is shaping clinical decision-making in operative neurosurgery and orthopaedics. His protocol-driven approach exemplifies high-impact, real-world surgical investigation, offering valuable insights for surgeons, trainees, and medical device developers seeking to optimize patient outcomes and procedural safety in instrumented spine surgery.
