About

Dr. Yanjun Pei is a pioneering researcher in the field of surgical robotics, with a focused expertise in image-guided systems for orthopedic oncology. Their most notable contribution is the development of an innovative surgical robot for bone tumor resection, a breakthrough that directly addresses the critical limitations of conventional human-performed surgery—namely, imprecision, high surgeon fatigue, and prolonged patient recovery. By integrating preoperative CT imaging with robotic precision, Dr. Pei’s system enables more accurate tumor removal while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. This work, published in 2017, has garnered 3 citations and represents a foundational step toward safer, less invasive bone cancer surgeries. Dr. Pei’s research sits at the intersection of medical imaging, robotics, and surgical planning, offering a tangible solution to one of orthopedics' most demanding procedures. Their contributions are particularly valuable for students and researchers interested in translational biomedical engineering, demonstrating how robotic assistance can transform high-stakes surgical outcomes. Dr. Pei’s work continues to inspire advancements in computer-assisted surgery, with potential applications extending beyond oncology to broader orthopedic interventions.
