As one of the project engineers in the Center for Orthopaedic Research I am involved in varying degrees in the design, development, and evaluation of our Computer Assisted Surgery systems. I am also the "bridge" man between our sister lab at Carnegie Mellon University and the clinical lab here at COR.

medical applications

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

• Hip Navigation System - Preoperative and intraoperative planning and execution system for high-precision total hip replacement.
• Knee Navigation Systems (KneeNav TKR/ACL) - We are developing two CT-based surgical navigation systems for total knee replacement and ACL reconstructive surgery.
