Abstract

This narrative review focusses on the applications and implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) in spine surgery. We present examples of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) applications, illustrating the potential of AI-derived technologies in supporting orthopaedic surgery, clinical decision making and educational purposes. We also describe the clinical hurdles that AI applications face. Finally, we present results from a survey evaluating the opinions of orthopaedic surgeons concerning the future of implementing AI-driven tools into orthopaedic and spine surgery.
