The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Urogynecology: Current Applications and Future Prospects.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is the new medical hot topic, being applied mainly in specialties with a strong imaging component. In the domain of gynecology, AI has been tested and shown vast potential in several areas with promising results, with an emphasis on oncology. However, fewer studies have been made focusing on urogynecology, a branch of gynecology known for using multiple imaging exams (IEs) and tests in the management of women's pelvic floor health. This review aims to illustrate the current state of AI in urogynecology, namely with the use of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) in diagnostics and as imaging tools, discuss possible future prospects for AI in this field, and go over its limitations that challenge its safe implementation.
