Artificial Intelligence and Orthopedic Surgery: Talks from the Mayo Clinic

Great job. 👍 Not just that. Once it is done for something you can apply it for anything else. Like, you know when the antibody system tries infinite tipes of antibodies until it finds the right one that matches the antigen and then stops the research process and starts to produce tons of that single antibody? Once you create it for something you apply it for every part of the skeleton in no time. Do you want to overcome the problem of not having enough xrays of an etnicity? Ask xrays to an african hospital, to a chinese hospital and so on. Great job.

I’m so much into this topic you don’t know how.. Before watching it i tell you my thought about the neat future of orthopaedic surgery and ai. There will be a bank of the scan of the skeleton of each individual. When a bone gets deformed the computer will confront the scan of the original and the scan of the ruined bone. And will yield the best sets of solutions. Like exactly where to cut, screw, unscrew, add pieces, the shape of the pieces. In some cases you need to do more then one surgery. So it will say how many surgeries, after how much time, what to do in every session. A plan. The principle is that if a bone is affected what we want is to bring it the closer to the original that we can. The closer the better. So the puzzle skeleton is least affected. Plus, robotic arms will do the surgery. Or work in tandem with the surgeon. This will put stress and strain off his shoulders. And above all, it will be super precise. I am sure of this vision. The question is when. I think soon. The development of this technologies is exponential. Plus the basics are already developed. Now it is time to apply them to the specific field. Plus i heard about verbal commands of the surgeon to the robotic arms. He will say something like “Cut the bone where you said and screw where you said”. 😄

And please, don’t forget the toes in the development of this technology. The beloved important toes. Yes they are not vital. But for the quality of life they are so important. And so difficult to do in surgery. We need some development there. And orthopaedics that don’t say “They are just toes”. They are the keys of the piano of our walk. When they are not proper anymore the quality of life slips. You know how delicate is to move 50, 60, 70, 80 kilos around all day every day? You feel a little change in the structure big time. 💙 🎹
