New Patent Issued: System and Method to Conduct Bone Surgery
Professor Imin Kao, Ph.D (Mechanical Engineering), and Dr. Fazel Khan, MD (Orthopaedics) were recently
issued a patent titled "System and Method to Conduct Bone Surgery." Along with their students, they are dealing with real clinical/surgical problems
to accurately reproduce the pre-operative planning to remove osteosarcoma. They have
developed new and innovative technologies to solve these problems. They anticipate
these solutions will make a big difference for patients and likely significantly change
how many orthopedic surgeries are done.
