About

Dr. Joshua David Piche is an orthopedic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing minimally invasive techniques in spine and pelvic trauma surgery. His primary research areas include robotic-assisted navigation for complex pelvic procedures and the evolution of sacroiliac joint (SIJ) fusion. Dr. Piche’s most notable contribution is his detailed description of a robotic navigation system for percutaneous sacroiliac screw placement, a technique that significantly enhances screw accuracy while reducing radiation exposure and operative time. His 2021 paper on this topic, which has garnered 14 citations, serves as a key technical reference for surgeons adopting robotic guidance in pelvic trauma. Beyond this work, Dr. Piche has contributed to the broader understanding of SIJ pathology—a common cause of debilitating pain—and the transition from open, invasive fusion to percutaneous, robot-assisted approaches. His research directly addresses the clinical challenge of improving patient outcomes through precision and reproducibility in pelvic fixation. For students and researchers in orthopedics, Dr. Piche’s work exemplifies how surgical innovation can transform traditionally high-risk procedures into safer, more reliable interventions, with his citation record reflecting growing interest in robotic applications across trauma and spine surgery.
