Current Labs & Groups

Medical Robotics and Computer Assisted Surgery - Researching planning (medical image computing, simulation) and execution (intraoperative sensing and actuation) technologies for computer-assisted surgery.

Current Projects

Hip Navigation System - Preoperative and intraoperative planning and execution system for high-precision total hip replacement.

XAlign - 2D/3D registration technique is used to analyze the postoperative pelvic radiographs and to measure placement of implants after total hip replacement
