About

Justin Gold is a spine surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive spinal surgery techniques, particularly through the refinement of robotic-assisted pedicle screw placement. His major contributions center on optimizing surgical positioning and accuracy in complex spinal procedures. In his most cited study, a retrospective single-surgeon analysis, Gold compared prone versus lateral robotic pedicle screw placement using CT-based assessment, demonstrating that single-position lateral surgery can achieve comparable accuracy to traditional prone approaches—a finding that has significant implications for reducing operative time and patient morbidity. This work has garnered 9 citations, establishing him as an emerging voice in the field of robotic spine surgery. Gold’s research addresses the practical challenges of lateral lumbar interbody fusion, where he explores how positioning impacts construct stability and surgical efficiency. His findings are particularly relevant for surgeons seeking to streamline multi-step procedures without compromising safety or outcomes. As a clinician-researcher, Gold bridges the gap between technical innovation and real-world surgical practice, making his work valuable for trainees and experienced surgeons alike.
