About

Mark Clatworthy is a leading orthopaedic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) through digital and robotic technologies. His major contributions lie in optimizing surgical precision and training for patient-specific alignment techniques. In his highly cited 2022 study on the VELYS™ Robotic-Assisted Solution, Clatworthy demonstrated how this new technology accurately captures bony anatomy and soft tissue constraints, enabling intraoperative planning for anatomical implant placement—a key step toward individualized knee replacement. His 2023 work on the Knee-CAT digital simulation tool further shows his commitment to improving surgical education, proving that such tools enhance process quality, efficiency, and surgeon confidence when transitioning from conventional mechanical alignment to personalized approaches. With over 22 citations on his robotic-assisted TKA paper alone, Clatworthy’s research is shaping how surgeons adopt and master these advanced technologies. His work bridges the gap between innovation and clinical practice, making him a pivotal figure in the evolution of digitally guided, patient-specific knee surgery.
