Abstract
BACKGROUND: In breast augmentation surgery, selection of the appropriate breast implant size is a crucial step that can greatly affect patient satisfaction and the outcome of the procedure. However, this decision is often based on the subjective judgment of the surgeon and the patient, which can lead to suboptimal results. The authors aimed to develop a machine-learning approach that can accurately predict the size of breast implants selected for breast augmentation surgery.
