About

Yinjuan Zhou is a rising scholar in health economics and surgical outcomes, with a focused expertise in the cost-effectiveness and methodological quality of robotic-assisted surgery. Her most-cited work, a 2022 systematic review on cost-utility analyses of robotic surgery, has garnered 22 citations and critically evaluates the economic value and reporting standards of this rapidly advancing field. By synthesizing evidence from seven electronic databases, Zhou highlights the pressing need for more rigorous and transparent economic evaluations to guide clinical and policy decisions. Her contributions are pivotal for understanding whether the high costs of robotic systems translate into meaningful patient benefits, making her research essential for surgeons, hospital administrators, and health economists. Zhou’s work not only identifies gaps in current literature but also sets a benchmark for future studies, underscoring her role in shaping evidence-based practice in surgical innovation. As a researcher dedicated to bridging technology and value-based care, she is a key voice in the ongoing debate over resource allocation in modern medicine.
