About
Minghao Huo is a leading researcher at the intersection of robotics, augmented reality (AR), and craniomaxillofacial surgery. His primary focus is on developing advanced surgical navigation systems that dramatically improve the precision and safety of complex mandibular reconstruction procedures. Huo’s major contribution is the creation of a robot-assisted AR navigation system that accurately overlays a patient’s preoperative osteotomy plan—including both the mandible and fibula—directly onto the real surgical field. This technology allows surgeons to perform osteotomies more quickly and with greater confidence, effectively bridging the gap between digital planning and physical execution. His most cited work, a 2023 study on this system, has garnered 31 citations, underscoring its immediate impact on the field. More recently, in 2025, he has advanced this concept by integrating personalized guide-plates into the robotic workflow, further enhancing post-operative stability. Huo’s innovative approach is not merely incremental; it represents a paradigm shift in how surgeons visualize and execute complex reconstructions, promising to reduce operative times and improve patient outcomes in oral and maxillofacial oncology.
