Welcome Address
Dear Esteemed Guests, Colleagues, and Friends,
On behalf of the Korean Society of Computer Assisted Orthopaedic Surgery (CAOS-KOREA), it is my distinct honor and privilege to welcome you to the CAOS Asia-Pacific International Conference.
As the President of CAOS-KOREA, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to all participants joining us from across the globe. Your presence here reflects our shared commitment to advancing orthopaedic innovation through collaboration and cutting-edge research.
Our society has long been at the forefront of integrating emerging technologies—such as robotics, navigation-assisted surgery, artificial intelligence, and 3D printing—into the field of orthopaedics. The rapid evolution of these technologies is transforming the landscape of medicine, and CAOS-KOREA is proud to be a leader in shaping the future of surgical practice. Moreover, we are actively engaged in strengthening international collaboration. Our efforts to host CAOS Asia-Pacific and expand global networks reflect our dedication to fostering a truly international orthopaedic community.
This conference will offer a unique opportunity for multidisciplinary exchange among clinicians, researchers, and engineers. I hope this meeting inspires new ideas, deepens professional connections, and contributes to the global mission of improving patient care through innovation. I encourage all of you to share your insights actively and explore the exciting future we can build together.
Thank you once again for your participation and continued support. Let us make this conference a memorable and fruitful experience.
Warm regards,
