About
Dr. Won-Jin Yi is a leading researcher in the field of computer-assisted and robot-assisted orthognathic surgery, with a primary focus on enhancing the precision and safety of maxillofacial procedures. His work centers on developing autonomous and semi-autonomous robotic systems for bone repositioning, directly addressing the limitations of traditional surgical splints. A key contribution is the introduction of a method for autonomous bone repositioning around anatomical landmarks, which has garnered 62 citations and represents a significant step toward reducing intraoperative errors. Dr. Yi further advanced the field by demonstrating the feasibility and accuracy of robot-assisted maxillary positioning, achieving 27 citations for a study that proposed a novel approach to eliminate time-consuming laboratory processes. His research also includes the development of an integrated system combining a robot arm with image-guided navigation, validated on phantom skulls, which simplifies bone interference removal and improves repositioning accuracy. Through these innovations, Dr. Yi has established himself as a pivotal figure in translating robotic technology into clinical orthognathic practice, setting new standards for surgical precision and patient outcomes.
