AI/ML enabled decision making in facilitating Robotic surgery

Abstract

Technological advancements have the potential to help every surgeon to enhance the quality of world-wide surgical care. Robotic surgery is currently at its inception stage but is expected to bloom with parallel advancements in computer science and artificial intelligence. The objective of this paper would be to understand the present and future scope of robotic surgery utilizing AI/ML techniques. The study will revolve around how next-generation surgical robots will be inherent in optimizing a surgeon's skills productively, to achieve the pinnacle of precision during complicated surgical procedures. It will focus on how AI/ML helps in Robotic Spine Surgery, Minimally Invasive Surgery techniques, and ophthalmic surgeries. It will talk about the current limitations of robotic surgery and how with latest technological advancements it will be possible to overcome the shortcomings.
