Revolutionising osseous biopsy: the impact of artificial intelligence in the era of personalized medicine.

In a rapidly evolving healthcare environment, artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming diagnostic techniques and personalized medicine. This is also seen in osseous biopsies. AI applications in radiomics, histopathology, predictive modelling, biopsy navigation, and interdisciplinary communication are reshaping how bone biopsies are conducted and interpreted. We provide a brief review of AI in image- guided biopsy of bone tumours (primary and secondary) and specimen handling, in the era of personalized medicine. This article explores AI's role in enhancing diagnostic accuracy, improving safety in biopsies, and enabling more precise targeting in bone lesion biopsies, ultimately contributing to better patient outcomes in personalized medicine. We dive into various AI technologies applied to osseous biopsies, such as traditional machine learning, deep learning, radiomics, simulation, and generative models. We explore their roles in tumour-board meetings, communication between clinicians, radiologists, and pathologists. Additionally, we inspect ethical considerations associated with the integration of AI in bone biopsy procedures, technical limitations, and we delve into health equity, generalizability, deployment issues, and reimbursement challenges in AI-powered healthcare. Finally, we explore potential future developments and offer a list of open-source AI tools and algorithms relevant to bone biopsies, which we include to encourage further discussion and research.
