Artificial intelligence and machine learning in spine care: Advancing precision diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation

摘要

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are transforming spine care by addressing diagnostics, treatment planning, and rehabilitation challenges. This study highlights advancements in precision medicine for spinal pathologies, leveraging AI and ML to enhance diagnostic accuracy through deep learning algorithms, enabling faster and more accurate detection of abnormalities. AI-powered robotics and surgical navigation systems improve implant placement precision and reduce complications in complex spine surgeries. Wearable devices and virtual platforms, designed with AI, offer personalized, adaptive therapies that improve treatment adherence and recovery outcomes. AI also enables preventive interventions by assessing spine condition risks early. Despite progress, challenges remain, including limited healthcare datasets, algorithmic biases, ethical concerns, and integration into existing systems. Interdisciplinary collaboration and explainable AI frameworks are essential to unlock AI's full potential in spine care. Future developments include multimodal AI systems integrating imaging, clinical, and genetic data for holistic treatment approaches. AI and ML promise significant improvements in diagnostic accuracy, treatment personalization, service accessibility, and cost efficiency, paving the way for more streamlined and effective spine care, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes.
