About
Dr. Anthony Frempong‐Boadu is a pioneering neurosurgeon whose work has fundamentally shaped the landscape of minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) and surgical technology. His seminal 2005 paper, "Endoscopic Spine Surgery and Instrumentation," remains a cornerstone reference (47 citations), providing the foundational framework for modern endoscopic techniques, from transoral odontoidectomy to percutaneous discectomy. This work established the critical protocols for anesthetic considerations and operating room setup that are now standard in MISS. More recently, Dr. Frempong‐Boadu has been at the forefront of evaluating emerging technologies in spinal fusion. His landmark 2020 study (26 citations) offers the first direct, comparative analysis of radiation exposure across CT image-guided navigation, robotic assistance, and traditional fluoroscopy in posterior lumbar fusion. This critical work not only quantifies the safety profiles of these advanced platforms but also provides surgeons with evidence-based guidance for minimizing patient risk while optimizing perioperative outcomes. Through his dual focus on pioneering endoscopic techniques and rigorously assessing modern surgical adjuncts, Dr. Frempong‐Boadu continues to drive the evolution of safer, more precise spine surgery.
