About
Dr. Saadi Ghatan is a pioneering neurosurgeon and researcher whose work sits at the intersection of advanced robotics, 3D printing, and epilepsy surgery. His primary research focuses on the precision and safety of stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG), a minimally invasive technique for mapping epileptic seizure foci in the brain. Dr. Ghatan’s major contributions include demonstrating that the angle of approach during robotic SEEG lead placement significantly affects accuracy—a finding that has directly informed surgical planning and reduced procedural risks. His work on patient-specific 3D-printed skull models for robotic surgical rehearsal represents a leap forward in personalized medicine, allowing surgeons to simulate complex procedures before entering the operating room. With his most-cited paper accumulating over 40 citations, Dr. Ghatan’s impact is evident in the growing adoption of robotic assistance in epilepsy surgery. His innovative integration of simulation technology with clinical practice has not only improved patient outcomes but also set a new standard for training the next generation of neurosurgeons.
