About

Tze-Hong Wong is a leading researcher in spinal surgery, with a focused expertise in the development and evaluation of robotic-assisted navigation systems for pedicle screw placement. His work addresses a critical challenge in orthopedics: improving the accuracy and safety of spinal fusion procedures, which are often complicated by the intricate anatomy of the human spine. Wong’s major contributions include the design and clinical testing of a self-developed navigation system, detailed in his 2019 study on robotic-assisted pedicle screw placement, which has garnered 14 citations. This work demonstrates the system’s potential to enhance precision in minimally invasive surgeries and for patients with congenital anomalies. His 2020 follow-up paper, with 8 citations, further validates the system’s efficacy, emphasizing its role in overcoming the technical difficulties of spinal surgery. By combining robotics with navigational technology, Wong has advanced the field of spine surgery, offering safer, more reliable solutions for complex procedures. His research is pivotal for surgeons and biomedical engineers seeking to integrate automation into surgical practice, and his findings continue to influence the evolution of spinal instrumentation.
