About

Ji Jun Liu is a leading spine surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on advancing surgical precision and outcomes in complex spinal deformities, particularly adult degenerative scoliosis. His major contributions center on the integration of robotic-assisted technology and minimally invasive techniques to improve pedicle screw placement accuracy and reduce surgical complications. In his landmark 2018 study, Liu demonstrated that robot-assisted pedicle screw placement significantly outperforms the traditional free-hand with fluoroscopy-guided method, achieving superior accuracy—a finding that has garnered 167 citations and reshaped surgical protocols. He further compared three assisted technologies in a 2018 study involving over 1,800 screws, providing critical evidence for the clinical and radiological superiority of robotic guidance in scoliosis correction (81 citations). Liu also pioneered a novel approach combining gelatin sponge impregnated with a three-drug mixture for intraoperative nerve root block with robot-assisted minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion, offering a safer, more effective treatment for adult degenerative scoliosis. His work has been instrumental in establishing evidence-based standards for robotic spine surgery, making him a pivotal figure in the field.
