About
Moran Shochat is a researcher working at the intersection of medical robotics, image-guided interventions, and minimally invasive procedural technologies. His work focuses on advancing the precision and safety of percutaneous procedures, particularly CT-guided needle insertion for clinical biopsies. Shochat's most notable contribution to date is his investigation of a novel hands-free robotic system designed to perform needle insertion and steering with enhanced accuracy while minimizing procedural duration and radiation exposure to both patients and clinicians. Published in 2022, this prospective, multi-center study involving 60 clinical cases represents a significant step forward in validating robotic assistance for real-world interventional radiology applications. With 11 citations accrued since publication, the work has begun attracting attention within the medical robotics and interventional imaging communities. By demonstrating the feasibility of autonomous or semi-autonomous needle guidance systems, Shochat's research addresses a critical clinical need — reducing human error and radiation burden in routine diagnostic procedures. His contributions position him as an emerging voice in translational medical device research, bridging engineering innovation with tangible patient care improvements.
