Abstract

The role of artificial intelligence in surgery is growing with every passing day. In the past, there has been a lack of information regarding the possibilities of its application in the surgical field which was mainly centered on the belief that robots are replacing human surgeons but their role is more of supplementing the surgeons, instead of replacing them. The change in this mindset has given dawn to several new avenues in the field of robotic and AI-supplemented surgeries. Even though it took longer to look into its promising outcomes, the ever-growing research in this field has changed the face of healthcare over the last few years. (Follow the Fulltext)
