About
Ryan Wai Keong Loke is a rising orthopaedic researcher whose work centers on the transformative potential of robotic-assisted arthroplasty. His primary research areas include robotic total knee arthroplasty (rTKA) and robotic total hip arthroplasty (THA), with a specific focus on surgical outcomes, implant survivorship, and the integration of artificial intelligence. Loke’s major contributions are evidenced by his high-impact systematic reviews and meta-analyses. His most cited work, a 2025 meta-analysis comparing MAKO robotic-assisted to conventional total hip arthroplasty for hip osteoarthritis, has garnered 15 citations and provides critical evidence on the system’s ability to enhance reproducibility and safety. He further advanced the field with a meta-analysis on survivorship in robotic versus conventional total knee arthroplasty (6 citations), addressing the crucial question of long-term implant durability. Notably, Loke received the prestigious P Balasubramaniam Award at the 2024 Singapore Orthopaedic Association Annual Scientific Meeting for his novel AI algorithm designed to improve soft tissue balancing and bone cut accuracy in rTKA, demonstrating his leadership in merging artificial intelligence with surgical precision. His work is shaping the future of evidence-based, technology-driven orthopaedic surgery.
