About

Matthias Grimm is a leading researcher in robotic ultrasound systems (RUSS), with a primary focus on autonomous image acquisition and probe positioning for medical diagnostics. His work addresses the critical challenge of inter-operator variability in ultrasound imaging by developing algorithms that enable robots to automatically optimize probe orientation and force application. Grimm’s most cited papers—each garnering nearly 100 citations—introduce novel methods such as confidence map optimization and real-time ultrasound imaging feedback for autonomous screening of tubular structures, including vascular applications. These contributions have significantly advanced the repeatability and precision of robotic ultrasound, particularly in orthopaedic and peripheral vascular disease contexts. More recently, Grimm has extended his expertise to ophthalmic surgery, where he applies deep learning for needle detection and localisation in robot-assisted subretinal injections, demonstrating the versatility of his work. With over 280 total citations across his key publications, Grimm’s research is foundational to the development of fully autonomous, force-aware robotic systems that promise to enhance diagnostic consistency and surgical accuracy in clinical settings.
