Artificial intelligence-integrated video analysis of vessel area changes and instrument motion for microsurgical skill assessment.

Scientific reports
Mastering microsurgical skills is essential for neurosurgical trainees. Video-based analysis of target tissue changes and surgical instrument motion provides an objective, quantitative method for assessing microsurgical proficiency, potentially enhan...

Large language models for extraction of OPS-codes from operative reports in meningioma surgery.

Acta neurochirurgica
BACKGROUND: In the German medical billing system, surgical departments encode their procedures in OPS-codes. These OPS-codes have major impact on DRG grouping and thus mainly determine each case“s revenue. In our study, we investigate the ability of ...

Development and Validation of a Large Language Model-Powered Chatbot for Neurosurgery: Mixed Methods Study on Enhancing Perioperative Patient Education.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: Perioperative education is crucial for optimizing outcomes in neuroendovascular procedures, where inadequate understanding can heighten patient anxiety and hinder care plan adherence. Current education models, reliant on traditional consu...

Cerebral aneurysm surgical training in the neuroendovascular era and its impact on the production of comfortable aneurysm surgeons.

Journal of clinical neuroscience : official journal of the Neurosurgical Society of Australasia
BACKGROUND: The increasing use of endovascular techniques has greatly decreased the number of intracranial aneurysms treated with open surgery. The objective of this study is to quantify chief residents' experience and comfort level with clipping of ...

Where are all the neurosurgery robots?

Journal of robotic surgery
Despite substantial advances in engineering, robotics, and artificial intelligence, autonomous robots have yet to revolutionize neurosurgery. In this perspective, we examine why neurosurgical robotics lag behind, analyzing economic, regulatory, liabi...

The role of artificial intelligence in diagnostic neurosurgery: a systematic review.

Neurosurgical review
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly applied in diagnostic neurosurgery, enhancing precision and decision-making in neuro-oncology, vascular, functional, and spinal subspecialties. Despite its potential, variability in outcomes ne...

Multimodal imaging platform for enhanced tumor resection in neurosurgery: integrating hyperspectral and pCLE technologies.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: This work presents a novel multimodal imaging platform that integrates hyperspectral imaging (HSI) and probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) for improved brain tumor identification during neurosurgery. By combining these two modal...

Accuracy and quality of ChatGPT-4o and Google Gemini performance on image-based neurosurgery board questions.

Neurosurgical review
Large-language models (LLMs) have shown the capability to effectively answer medical board examination questions. However, their ability to answer imagebased questions has not been examined. This study sought to evaluate the performance of two LLMs (...

Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Neurosurgery for Improving Outcomes Through Diagnostics, Predictive Tools, and Resident Education.

World neurosurgery
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) has become an increasingly prominent tool in the field of neurosurgery, revolutionizing various aspects of patient care and surgical practices. AI-powered systems can provide real-time feedback to surgeons, en...

Epilepsy surgery candidate identification with artificial intelligence: An implementation study.

Journal of clinical neuroscience : official journal of the Neurosurgical Society of Australasia
BACKGROUND: To (a) evaluate the effect of a machine learning algorithm in the identification of patients suitable for epilepsy surgery evaluation, and (b) examine the performance of a large language model (LLM) in the collation of key pieces of infor...
