About

Dr. Woquan Zhong is at the forefront of spinal surgery innovation, specializing in the integration of artificial intelligence, robotics, and ultrasonic technology to enhance the safety and precision of minimally invasive procedures. His major contributions include the development and validation of an AI-based robotic system capable of autonomously planning and executing spinal posterior decompression, demonstrating remarkable accuracy in cadaveric models. Dr. Zhong has also pioneered research into the thermal dynamics of ultrasonic osteotomes during robot-assisted laminectomy, identifying optimal cutting strategies to mitigate heat-related tissue damage. His work on robot-assisted positioning for percutaneous endoscopic interlaminar discectomy further expands the application of medical robotics in complex spinal interventions. With his most-cited papers accumulating over a dozen citations in just a few years, Dr. Zhong’s research is already shaping the next generation of autonomous and minimally invasive spinal surgery. His achievements highlight a commitment to translating cutting-edge engineering into tangible clinical benefits, making him a rising leader in the field of computer-assisted orthopaedic surgery.
