Clinical Profile

Summary

My research efforts focus on both tumor surgery and hip and knee replacement surgery.

1. I am studying computer assisted navigation in knee replacement surgery. My partner and I are currently completing a study looking as using the computer compared to standard surgery (without the computer). We will be analyzing and publishing these results. We will then begin our next study which compares two different types of computer systems to see if one is more effecient in the operating room, resulting in shorter surgical times for patients..

2. I am involved in a multi-center study looking at bone quality (osteoporosis) in hip replacement patients. We will study how patients with stronger versus weaker bone do with a hip replacement put in without bone cement..

3. I am involved with ongoing studies of patients with soft tissue tumors and bone tumors.
