About

Sebastian Kos is a pioneer in the field of interventional musculoskeletal radiology, with a focused expertise in CT-guided, robotically-assisted joint infiltration. His most-cited work, "CT-guided robotically-assisted infiltration of foot and ankle joints" (2009, 20 citations), represents a landmark contribution to orthopaedic diagnostics. In this study, Kos and his team developed and described a novel mechatronically-assisted technique for performing diagnostic injections in the foot and ankle, a region notoriously difficult to access with conventional methods. By applying this advanced approach to 16 patients, he demonstrated how robotic precision could dramatically enhance the accuracy of joint infiltration, reducing procedural risk and improving diagnostic reliability. This work bridged the gap between cutting-edge robotics and clinical orthopaedics, offering a reproducible solution for complex anatomical assessments. Kos’s research has been instrumental in advancing minimally invasive, image-guided interventions, setting a new standard for targeted joint therapy and diagnosis. His contributions continue to influence the integration of automation in radiology, making him a key figure in the evolution of precision medicine for musculoskeletal disorders.
