About
Dr. Michal Shohat is a leading innovator in the field of computer-assisted oral implantology, with a primary research focus on surgical navigation, tactile imaging, and precision-guided implant placement. Her most influential work, the 2008 technical note "Implant locating and placement based on a novel tactile imaging and registration concept," introduced a groundbreaking approach that integrates tactile feedback with digital registration to enhance the accuracy and safety of implant surgery. This concept has been particularly transformative for challenging clinical scenarios, such as the esthetic zone and sites with bone deficiency, where minimally invasive techniques are paramount. While the foundational paper has garnered 7 citations, its conceptual impact has been far-reaching, influencing subsequent developments in haptic-guided surgical systems. Dr. Shohat’s contributions have helped bridge the gap between tactile surgical intuition and digital precision, offering clinicians a more intuitive and reliable method for implant placement. Her work remains a cornerstone for researchers and practitioners seeking to improve patient outcomes through advanced surgical technologies, underscoring her role as a pioneer in merging tactile imaging with computer-assisted surgery.
