Dr. Andrew Pearle is chief of the Sports Medicine Institute at HSS. A board-certified orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Pearle's clinical interests include arthroscopic and robotic surgery of the shoulder, knee and ankle. He is director of the Computer Assisted Surgery Center at HSS and editor-in-chief of Techniques in Knee Surgery, an orthopedic journal.

After 9/11, he traveled to Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem during the height of the intifada to assist in the care of terror victims. While participating in this care, Dr. Pearle was inspired by the pioneering use of computer assisted surgery (CAS) at Hadassah. "Hadassah surgeons modified computer-assisted surgery tools designed for the spine, and applied the technology to remove shrapnel," he recalls.

After Dr. Pearle was recruited as an attending orthopedic surgeon at HSS, he was selected to develop one of the first computer-assisted surgery programs in the United States. Computer-assisted surgery uses navigation, which is like a "GPS for orthopedic surgery," says Dr. Pearle, who conducts research to bring these techniques from bench to bedside.

Through the use of these technologies, orthopedic surgeons at HSS are able to create virtual pre-operative treatment plans to better predict surgical outcomes and then execute those plans in the operating room. This form of precision medicine leads to more personalized care.
