About
Dr. Yongzhi Shan is a neurosurgeon whose research focuses on advancing stereotactic and functional neurosurgery, particularly in the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy and brain tumors. His major contributions center on improving the precision and diagnostic yield of stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) and robot-assisted brain biopsy. In his most cited work (2021, 17 citations), Dr. Shan systematically analyzed factors affecting the accuracy of multilobe-spanning SEEG electrodes placed using a frameless stereotactic robot, providing critical insights for enhancing surgical outcomes in intractable epilepsy. He further refined this field by evaluating factors influencing diagnostic yield and target point error in robot-assisted stereotactic brain biopsy (2025, 6 citations). Dr. Shan has also drawn attention to a rare but serious condition—primary central nervous system post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (2024, 2 citations)—urging neurosurgeons to recognize its diagnostic and treatment challenges. Additionally, his bibliometric analysis (2024, 1 citation) mapped two decades of SEEG research, highlighting emerging trends. Through these studies, Dr. Shan demonstrates a commitment to improving minimally invasive neurosurgical techniques, directly impacting patient safety and diagnostic accuracy in complex neurological disorders.
