Emerging trends in telemedicine and artificial intelligence in urology
This article explores the emerging trends and technologies in urology, focusing on telemedicine and artificial intelligence. It provides a brief overview of the benefits of telemedicine and its impact on the patient-physician interactions. The article subsequently explores in detail the use of artificial intelligence, which is currently gaining considerable interest from both general public and medical professionals. Its potential in urology has been tested in a number of clinical studies, particularly in the field of uro-oncology and, to a lesser extent, in benign urological diseases. The aim of this article is to identify the key advances in this rapidly evolving field, while also highlighting the current limitations of its implementation into clinical practice.
Keywords: telemedicine, artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning, robotic surgery, uro-oncology.
