About the Lab
Professor Moon Seok Park's research lab specializes in musculoskeletal imaging and radiation safety in orthopedic surgery. The lab focuses on improving the accuracy and reliability of musculoskeletal measurements—particularly patellar height assessment—across pediatric and adolescent populations using advanced imaging techniques. A key emphasis is placed on minimizing radiation exposure during fluoroscopic procedures, especially in intraoperative settings, through optimized C-arm usage and protective strategies. The lab also addresses methodological rigor in medical research, particularly the importance of statistical independence in bilateral data analysis to ensure valid and unbiased results.

15Researchers need to consider statistical independence when performing statistical analysis, particularly in studies involving bilateral cases. If data dependency within a subject is not considered, studies involving bilateral cases can bias results, depending on the context of those studies.
The following factors could reduce radiation exposure during intraoperative use of C-arm; (1) distance from the patient, (2) C-arm configuration, (3) radioprotective equipments, (4) rotating the surgeons' eyes away from the patient, and (5) avoiding direct exposure of surgeons' hands.
UNLABELLED: Patellar height is associated with various clinical syndromes. We asked which of three methods was the most appropriate for measuring patellar height for different age groups in terms of applicability, validity, and reliability. We evaluated 108 children and adolescents with available MR images and lateral knee radiographs using Insall-Salvati (IS), Blackburne-Peel, and Koshino-Sugimoto (KS) methods. Subjects were divided equally into three age groups (A, 5-10.9 years; B, 11-12.9 yea

The four upper extremity fractures tended to show greater variations than the two lower extremity fractures in the nationwide database in South Korea. The study results are believed to be helpful in the planning and assignment of medical resources for fracture management in children and adolescents.
This study investigates the overall rate of urinary retention in a large cohort of unselected orthopaedic patients who had either general or regional anesthesia and defines the risk factors for postoperative urinary retention in that cohort of patients. A total of 15,681 patients who underwent major orthopaedic surgery with general or spinal/epidural anesthesia were included. Postoperative urinary retention was defined as any patient who required a postoperative consultation to the urologic depa
BACKGROUND: The relationship between torsional bony deformities and rotational gait parameters has not been sufficiently investigated. This study was to investigate the degree of contribution of torsional bony deformities to rotational gait parameters in patients with diplegic cerebral palsy (CP). METHODS: Thirty three legs from 33 consecutive ambulatory patients (average age 9.5 years, SD 6.9 years; 20 males and 13 females) with diplegic CP who underwent preoperative three dimensional gait anal
