Clinical and scientific contribution
In the scientific field, Richter and his team developed a score for diagnosing and tracking foot and ankle conditions.{{cite journal | last1 = Richter | first1 = M | last2 = Zech | first2 = S | last3 = Geerling | first3 = J | last4 = Frink | first4 = M | last5 = Knobloch | first5 = K | last6 = Krettek | first6 = C | year = 2006 | title = A new foot and ankle outcome score: Questionnaire based, subjective, Visual-Analogue-Scale, validated and computerized | url = http://www.footanklesurgery-journal.com/article/S1268-7731(06)00037-3/fulltext | journal = Foot Ankle Surg | volume = 12 | issue = 4| pages = 191–9 | doi = 10.1016/j.fas.2006.04.001 }}{{cite journal | pmid = 21783078 | doi=10.1016/j.fas.2010.05.005 | volume=17 | issue=3 | title=Normative data of the Visual Analogue Scale Foot and Ankle (VAS FA) for pathological conditions | year=2011 | journal=Foot Ankle Surg | pages=166–72 | last1 = Stüber | first1 = J | last2 = Zech | first2 = S | last3 = Bay | first3 = R | last4 = Qazzaz | first4 = A | last5 = Richter | first5 = M}}
Richter developed a form of pedography for force and pressure measurement that can be used during operations to assess mechanical function.{{cite journal | pmid = 17054887 | doi=10.1177/107110070602701014 | volume=27 | issue=10 | title=Intraoperative pedography: a validated method for static intraoperative biomechanical assessment | year=2006 | journal=Foot Ankle Int | pages=833–42 | last1 = Richter | first1 = M | last2 = Frink | first2 = M | last3 = Zech | first3 = S | last4 = Vanin | first4 = N | last5 = Geerling | first5 = J | last6 = Droste | first6 = P | last7 = Krettek | first7 = C| s2cid=7471708 }}{{cite journal | pmid = 19912710 | doi=10.3113/FAI.2009.1029 | volume=30 | issue=11 | title=Leonard J.

He developed a form of computer assisted surgery for foot and ankle corrections.{{cite journal | last1 = Richter | first1 = M | last2 = Geerling | first2 = J | last3 = Frink | first3 = M | last4 = Zech | first4 = S | last5 = Knobloch | first5 = K | last6 = Dammann | first6 = F | last7 = Hankemeier | first7 = S | last8 = Krettek | first8 = C | year = 2006 | title = Computer Assisted Surgery Based (CAS) based correction of posttraumatic ankle and hindfoot deformities – Preliminary results | url = http://www.footanklesurgery-journal.com/article/S1268-7731(06)00023-3/fulltext | journal = Foot Ankle Surg | volume = 12 | pages = 113–9 | doi = 10.1016/j.fas.2006.02.003 }}
He has run clinical trials on a variation of articular cartilage stem cell paste grafting to treat cartilage defects in feet and ankles.{{cite journal|last1=Richter|first1=M|last2=Zech|first2=S|title=Matrix-associated stem cell transplantation (MAST) in chondral defects of foot and ankle is effective.|journal=Foot and Ankle Surgery|date=June 2013|volume=19|issue=2|pages=84–90|doi=10.1016/j.fas.2012.11.005|pmid=23548448|url=https://zenodo.org/record/895986}}{{cite journal|last1=Meissner|first1=S.|last2=Zech|first2=S.|last3=Richter|first3=M.|title=Matrix-associated stem cell transplantation (MAST) in chondral defects of the ankle is safe and effective – 2-year-followup in 130 patients|journal=Foot and Ankle Surgery|date=June 2016|volume=22|issue=2|pages=51|doi=10.1016/j.fas.2016.05.122}}
He also developed several implants for foot and ankle surgery.{{cite journal | pmid = 24480493 | doi=10.1016/j.fas.2013.08.003 | volume=20 | issue=1 | title=Biomechanical comparison of stability of tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis with two different intramedullary retrograde nails | year=2014 | journal=Foot Ankle Surg | pages=14–9 | last1 = Richter | first1 = M | last2 = Evers | first2 = J | last3 = Waehnert | first3 = D | last4 = Deorio | first4 = JK | last5 = Pinzur | first5 = M | last6 = Schulze | first6 = M | last7 = Zech | first7 = S | last8 = Ochman | first8 = S}}{{cite journal | pmid = 27301734 | doi=10.1016/j.fas.2015.06.005 | volume=22 | issue=2 | title=Tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis with a triple-bend intramedullary nail (A3)-2-year follow-up in 60 patients | year=2016 | journal=Foot Ankle Surg | pages=131–8 | last1 = Richter | first1 = M | last2 = Zech | first2 = S}}{{cite journal | pmid = 28183211 | doi=10.1177/1071100717690805 | volume=38 | issue=5 | title=3D Optical Investigation of 2 Nail Systems Used in Tibiotalocalcaneal Arthrodesis: A Biomechanical Study | year=2017 | journal=Foot Ankle Int | pages=571–579 | last1 = Evers | first1 = J | last2 = Lakemeier | first2 = M | last3 = Wähnert | first3 = D | last4 = Schulze | first4 = M | last5 = Richter | first5 = M | last6 = Raschke | first6 = MJ | last7 = Ochman | first7 = S| s2cid=11316009 }}{{cite journal | pmid = 16943483 | doi=10.1302/0301-620X.88B9.17822 | volume=88 | issue=9 | title=Polyaxially-locked plate screws increase stability of fracture fixation in an experimental model of calcaneal fracture | year=2006 | journal=J Bone Joint Surg Br | pages=1257–63 | last1 = Richter | first1 = M | last2 = Droste | first2 = P | last3 = Goesling | first3 = T | last4 = Zech | first4 = S | last5 = Krettek | first5 = C| doi-access = free }}
