Artificial intelligence enhances precision and safety in surgery

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in surgical medicine is revolutionizing the field, enhancing the precision and safety of procedures. AI aids in preoperative diagnosis, real-time navigation during surgery, and postoperative management. Specific case studies demonstrate significant improvements in surgical outcomes, such as reduced complications and faster recoveries. However, challenges including cost, data security, and the need for physician training remain barriers to widespread implementation. A systematic review highlights both the advantages and limitations of AI in surgical practice.
