About
Sung Uk Kuh is a leading spine surgeon and researcher whose work centers on advancing the safety and precision of spinal instrumentation, particularly through robotic-assisted surgery. His major contributions lie in the quantitative assessment of pedicle screw placement accuracy, where he has pioneered three-dimensional evaluation methods to reduce surgical errors and improve patient outcomes. His most cited study, a 2023 multicenter investigation, rigorously assessed a new robotic system’s clinical feasibility, demonstrating its potential to enhance screw placement precision in percutaneous fixation. With 12 citations in a short time, this work has already influenced the field’s standards for robotic guidance in spine surgery. Kuh’s research bridges engineering and clinical practice, offering evidence-based protocols that help surgeons adopt new technologies with confidence. His achievements include leading collaborative trials that validate innovative surgical tools, making him a key figure in the evolution of minimally invasive spine surgery. For students and researchers, his work exemplifies how rigorous quantitative assessment can transform surgical safety and drive the adoption of robotics in orthopedics.
