Early-Stage Clinical Evaluation of Real-Time Artificial Intelligence Assistance for Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
Résumé
Lay Summary The growing availability of surgical digital data and developments in analytics such as artificial intelligence (AI) are being harnessed to improve surgical care. However, technical and cultural barriers to real-time intraoperative AI assistance exist. This early-stage clinical evaluation shows the technical feasibility of concurrently deploying several AIs in operating rooms for real-time assistance during procedures. In addition, potentially relevant clinical applications of these AI models are explored with a multidisciplinary cohort of key stakeholders.
