About

Dr. Norio Yamamoto is a leading orthopedic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing surgical precision in total hip arthroplasty (THA) and evidence-based rehabilitation. His primary research areas include robotic-assisted surgery, computer navigation, and augmented reality technologies, where he systematically evaluates how these innovations improve implant placement accuracy and patient outcomes. In his landmark 2024 network meta-analysis, Dr. Yamamoto compared six surgical techniques—manual, robot-assisted, computer-navigated, augmented reality navigated, patient-specific instrumentation, and accelerometer navigated THA—providing the first comprehensive evidence that robotic and navigation systems significantly reduce acetabular cup malpositioning. This highly cited work (12 citations) has become a critical reference for surgeons adopting precision technologies. Additionally, his bibliometric analysis of the top 50 most influential articles on stroke rehabilitation (3 citations) demonstrates his commitment to methodological rigor, identifying key research trends and evidence levels that guide clinical practice. Dr. Yamamoto’s contributions bridge cutting-edge surgical technology with robust evidence synthesis, making him a pivotal figure in modern orthopedics and rehabilitation research.
