Research Contributions
Developed Best Practice Guidelines for Osteoporosis Management in Spinal Reconstruction
Co-authored guidelines for assessing and managing osteoporosis in adult patients undergoing elective spinal reconstruction, aiming to improve patient outcomes and reduce complications.
Spine (2021)
Identified Factors Influencing Revision Surgery in Proximal Junctional Kyphosis
Contributed to research identifying key factors leading to revision surgery in patients with proximal junctional kyphosis, informing surgical planning and postoperative care.
European Spine Journal (2020)
Improved Understanding of Shoulder Balance in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis
Helped determine that the amount of relative curve correction is more important than upper instrumented vertebra selection for ensuring postoperative shoulder balance in Lenke Type 1 and Type 2 Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis.
Spine (2019)
Developed a Novel MRI-Based Classification for Spinal Cord Shape
Co-developed a novel MRI-based classification of spinal cord shape and CSF presence at the curve apex to assess risk of intraoperative neuromonitoring data loss with thoracic spinal deformity correction.
Spine Deformity (2020)
Evaluated the Use of 3D-Printed Spine Models for Pedicle Screw Placement
Contributed to research on the utilization of 3D-printed spine models for freehand pedicle screw placement in complex spinal deformity correction, enhancing surgical precision.
Journal of Spine Surgery (2018)
Analyzed the Impact of Global Alignment and Proportion Score on Mechanical Complications
Participated in a study assessing whether the Global Alignment and Proportion score overestimates mechanical complications after adult spinal deformity correction, refining postoperative assessment methods.
Journal of Neurosurgery Spine (2020)
Investigated the Efficacy of the 'Kickstand Rod' Technique for Coronal Imbalance
Contributed to the development and evaluation of the 'Kickstand Rod' technique for correction of coronal imbalance in patients with adult spinal deformity, improving surgical outcomes.
Journal of Spine Surgery (2018)
Studied Complications Following Single-Level Interbody Fusion Procedures
Co-authored a study on complications following single-level interbody fusion procedures using ACS-NSQIP data, providing insights into risk factors and prevention strategies.
Journal of Spine Surgery (2018)
