About
Jeffrey A. Goldstein is a leading spine surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing the safety and precision of spinal surgery through robotic assistance and image-guided navigation. His major contributions focus on the clinical implementation and evaluation of the ExcelsiusGPS® robotic-navigation system for thoracolumbar and pelvic screw placement. In his landmark study involving 643 screws, he demonstrated the system’s feasibility and accuracy, laying critical groundwork for its adoption. Goldstein has also systematically compared radiation exposure across surgical techniques—including CT-guided navigation, robotic assistance, and traditional fluoroscopy—showing that robotic and navigated approaches can reduce radiation for patients and staff. His research on the learning curve for robot-assisted spine surgery provides essential guidance for surgeons adopting this technology, identifying proficiency benchmarks and early-phase challenges. With over 75 combined citations across his most influential papers, Goldstein’s work directly informs perioperative decision-making and training protocols. His studies are frequently referenced in the growing literature on minimally invasive, technology-enhanced spine surgery, making him a key voice in the transition toward safer, more reproducible surgical outcomes.
