About
Bert Boonen is a leading orthopedic researcher whose work focuses on advancing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) through the integration of robotic and computer-assisted technologies. His primary research areas include robotic-assisted knee surgery, inverse kinematic alignment, and digital pre- and intra-operative planning modalities. Boonen’s most notable contribution is his 2025 study on the ROSA® Knee System, which compares image-based robotic TKA with inverse kinematic alignment to conventional methods—a critical investigation given that knee osteoarthritis affects 368 million people globally and dissatisfaction rates after TKA remain around 20%. This work has already garnered 7 citations, signaling its timely impact. Additionally, his comprehensive 2024 review of computer-based planning modalities for TKA, with 2 citations, provides surgeons with a valuable synthesis of available digital tools, helping them navigate the growing array of planning options. Boonen’s research directly addresses the pressing need to improve patient outcomes in knee replacement surgery, making him a key voice in the movement toward personalized, technology-driven orthopedic care.
