Abstract

Artificial intelligence is paving the way in contemporary medical advances, with the potential to revolutionise orthopaedic surgical care. By harnessing the power of complex algorithms, artificial intelligence yields outputs that have diverse applications including, but not limited to, identifying implants, diagnostic imaging for fracture and tumour recognition, prognostic tools through the use of electronic medical records, assessing arthroplasty outcomes, length of hospital stay and economic costs, monitoring the progress of functional rehabilitation, and innovative surgical training via simulation. However, amid the promising potential and enthusiasm surrounding artificial intelligence, clinicians should understand its limitations, and caution is needed before artificial intelligence-driven tools are introduced to clinical practice.
