About
Dr. Seohyun Moon is a leading researcher in surgical robotics and image-guided interventions, with a primary focus on advancing spine surgery through novel navigation and robotic systems. Her most cited work introduces a groundbreaking C-arm-based planning spine surgery robot, validated in a porcine model, which demonstrates a quantitative accuracy assessment methodology for pedicle screw placement. This study, cited 10 times, addresses critical challenges in spinal instrumentation by comparing planned versus actual screw trajectories, significantly improving surgical precision and safety. Dr. Moon’s contributions lie in developing robust registration techniques and mini-screw fiducial markers that enhance intraoperative navigation, reducing reliance on traditional fluoroscopy. Her research has direct implications for reducing complication rates in complex spinal procedures, marking her as a key innovator in the field. Beyond this work, her achievements include pioneering methods for real-time 3D planning and robotic execution, positioning her at the forefront of translational surgical robotics. For students and researchers, Dr. Moon’s work exemplifies the integration of engineering precision with clinical need, offering a blueprint for future advancements in automated, image-guided surgery.
