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...

Comparison of quality, empathy and readability of physician responses versus chatbot responses to common cerebrovascular neurosurgical questions on a social media platform.

Clinical neurology and neurosurgery
BACKGROUND: Social media platforms are utilized by patients prior to scheduling formal consultations and also serve as a means of pursuing second opinions. Cerebrovascular pathologies require regular surveillance and specialized care. In recent years...

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...

Comparison of surgical approaches to the hippocampal formation with artificial intelligence.

Neurosurgical review
The relatively complex functional anatomy of the mediobasal temporal region makes surgical approaches to this area challenging. Several studies describe various surgical approaches, along with their combinations and modifications, to reach lesions of...

Performance evaluation of ChatGPT-4.0 and Gemini on image-based neurosurgery board practice questions: A comparative analysis.

Journal of clinical neuroscience : official journal of the Neurosurgical Society of Australasia
INTRODUCTION: Artificial intelligence (AI) has gained significant attention in medicine, particularly in neurosurgery, where its potential is often discussed and occasionally feared. Large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT-4.0 (OpenAI) and Gemi...

Prediction of facial nerve outcomes after surgery for vestibular schwannoma using machine learning-based models: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Neurosurgical review
Postoperative facial nerve (FN) dysfunction is associated with a significant impact on the quality of life of patients and can result in psychological stress and disorders such as depression and social isolation. Preoperative prediction of FN outcome...
