About
Dewei Zhao is a leading researcher in musculoskeletal anatomy and biomedical visualization, with a particular focus on the structural complexity of human bone. His work centers on advancing the understanding of trabecular bone architecture, especially within the proximal femur—a critical region for weight-bearing and a common site of osteoporotic fracture. Zhao’s major contribution lies in applying the P45 sectional plastination technique, a cutting-edge method that preserves and displays anatomical structures in their natural spatial relationships. His most-cited study, published in 2025, uses this technique to reveal the intricate three-dimensional arrangement of trabecular struts across coronal, sagittal, and horizontal sections, providing unprecedented clarity on how these microstructures support mechanical load. With 6 citations already, this work has quickly gained attention for its potential to inform orthopedic surgery, implant design, and fracture risk assessment. Zhao’s research bridges anatomy and clinical application, offering a vital resource for students and researchers seeking to visualize and understand the hidden architecture of human bone.
