About
Dr. Hideyuki Suenaga is a pioneering force in the field of surgical robotics, with a focused expertise in autonomous systems for oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS). His major contributions center on developing compact, intelligent robotic platforms that enhance surgical precision while minimizing human error. Notably, his 2020 work on an autonomous surgical robot featuring camera-based markerless navigation (50 citations) represents a breakthrough, enabling robots to perform complex OMS procedures from a preoperative plan under surgeon supervision. This builds on his 2019 foundational study (42 citations) that first proposed a fully autonomous OMS system with markerless navigation. Dr. Suenaga has also addressed critical clinical barriers, such as impracticable workspaces, by engineering a lightweight, six-degree-of-freedom orthognathic robot with a workspace limitation mechanism (11 citations). His research extends into augmented reality for surgical planning, as seen in his 2025 work on Le Fort I osteotomy fixation. With a career dedicated to translating robotic innovation from bench to bedside, Dr. Suenaga is shaping the future of safer, more reliable maxillofacial surgery.
