Artificial intelligence is an exciting and growing field in medicine to assist in the proper diagnosis of patients. Although the use of artificial intelligence in orthopedics is currently limited, its utility in other fields has been extremely valuable and could be useful in orthopedics, especially spine care. Automated systems have the ability to analyze complex patterns and images, which will allow for enhanced analysis of imaging. Although the potential impact of artificial intelligence integration into spine care is promising, there are several limitations that must be overcome. Our goal is to review current advances that machine learning has been used for in orthopedics, and discuss potential application to spine care in the clinical setting in which there is a need for the development of automated systems.
人工智能是医学中一个令人兴奋且不断发展的领域,可辅助对患者进行正确诊断。尽管目前人工智能在骨科中的应用有限,但它在其他领域的实用性非常有价值,并且在骨科,尤其是脊柱护理中可能有用。自动化系统有能力分析复杂的模式和图像,这将允许对成像进行增强分析。虽然人工智能融入脊柱护理的潜在影响是有希望的,但仍有一些限制需要克服。我们的目标是回顾机器学习在骨科中已被应用的现有进展,并讨论在需要开发自动化系统的临床环境中,其在脊柱护理中的潜在应用。
