Al-Qudah","Samer S. Hoz"],"abstract":"Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative force in neurosurgery, affecting various aspects such as diagnosis, treatment planning, and surgical procedures. While AI offers significant potential to enhance surgical outcomes and patient care, its integration also presents numerous challenges and considerations. Summary: AI-driven tools facilitate accurate surgical planning through virtual simulations and automated modeling, enabling neurosurgeons to devise precise treatment strategies. However, the integration of AI raises concerns regarding biased data, ethical issues related to patient privacy, and the need for specialized training for medical practitioners. Effective collaboration between physicians and AI technologies is essential for successful implementation. Conclusion: AI is revolutionizing neurosurgery by improving surgical accuracy and patient outcomes through enhanced preoperative planning and intraoperative navigation. As AI technologies evolve, they promise further advancements in surgical techniques and patient care, necessitating a focus on ethical considerations and continuous monitoring of AI systems.
