About
Felix Amsler is a researcher at the forefront of advanced musculoskeletal imaging, specializing in the development and evaluation of three-dimensional cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) systems. His work focuses on improving diagnostic imaging for the lumbar spine and other anatomical structures, particularly in weight-bearing, upright positions—a critical advancement for assessing spinal conditions under natural physiological loads. Amsler’s major contributions include the initial feasibility and image quality assessment of a prototype 3D CBCT system for lumbar spine imaging, where he demonstrated its potential to deliver diagnostic-quality images while optimizing radiation dose across varying patient body mass indices. His phantom-based comparative study further established the prototype’s performance against conventional CT, highlighting its promise for reduced dose and enhanced accessibility. With over 30 citations across his key publications, Amsler’s research has laid essential groundwork for translating robotic x-ray technology into clinical practice. His notable achievements include pioneering the first systematic evaluations of upright CBCT, offering a non-invasive, low-radiation alternative for dynamic spine imaging that could transform the diagnosis of instability and degenerative conditions.
