About
Dr. Yaqing Li is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of telemedicine, medical robotics, and infectious disease imaging. Her most impactful work addresses a critical challenge exposed by the COVID-19 pandemic: how to perform early imaging assessments while minimizing infection risk. In her landmark 2020 pilot study, cited 67 times, Dr. Li demonstrated the feasibility of using robot-assisted teleultrasound supported by a 5G network. This protocol allowed clinicians to remotely perform ultrasound scans on suspected COVID-19 patients, enabling rapid, early diagnosis without direct physical contact. By proving that high-bandwidth, low-latency 5G networks could reliably transmit real-time robotic control and imaging data, her research laid a crucial foundation for a new strategy in pandemic response and remote healthcare delivery. Dr. Li’s work not only offers a scalable solution for future outbreaks but also advances the broader field of tele-robotic ultrasound, with implications for rural healthcare and emergency medicine. Her contributions highlight how cutting-edge communication technology can be directly applied to solve pressing clinical problems.
