Summary
- My surgical practice includes treating patients with spinal deformity (e.g. scoliosis, kyphosis, spondylolisthesis), trauma, tumors, degenerative conditions (e.g. cervical myelopathy, lumbar stenosis, disc herniations), inflammatory conditions (e.g. Rheumatoid Arthritis), infections, connective tissue disorders (e.g. Ehlers Danlos), syringomyelia, and Chiari malformations. I use state-of-the-art technologies such as image-guidance, robotics, and minimally invasive surgery (MIS) to ensure that I deliver surgical treatment at the highest level of quality and safety.
My research is focused on technology that improves patient care and outcomes, including the investigation and clinical translation of innovative MRI methods (e.g. diffusion and myelin imaging) to characterize spinal cord microstructure and tissue injury. My research laboratory has several areas of focus, including 1) quantification of spinal cord microstructure using MRI and other novel technologies; 2) development of clinical measures to assess spinal cord function; 3) automated image analysis; and 4) innovation of tools for surgical planning, deformity correction, image-guided surgery, an
