Development of Advanced Surgical Support Systems and Novel AI-Driven Image Generation Technologies

While joint replacement and osteotomy are widely performed to treat limb joint dysfunction such as osteoarthritis, achieving optimal postoperative outcomes requires implant selection tailored to individual joint kinematics and precise surgical navigation.　Our laboratory is developing advanced surgical support systems that utilize 3D dynamic imaging analysis and computer-based surgical simulation to restore normal joint morphology and function. In parallel, leveraging our extensive imaging database of various musculoskeletal disorders, we are developing AI-driven technologies to visualize articular cartilage not detectable on standard radiographs and to automatically reconstruct three-dimensional models from two-dimensional imaging data.
