Application of artificial intelligence technology in plastic surgery

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology has advanced rapidly in the field of medicine in recent five years. This paper summarizes the progress of the research and application of AI in plastic surgery in the era of big data and describes the differences from the previous scientific research. Next, it discusses the main problems existing and the ways to carry out AI research. Finally it proposes to unify the data standard through the deep integration of medical and engineering professionals, establish big data centers, and form strategic cooperative relationships with AI research enterprises to carry out long-term research. At the same time, it is crucial to formulate strategies and method for extensive scientific research collaboration. The paper calls for the clinical application of the AI research result to establish a virtuous circle. Applying artificial intelligence in the field of plastic surgery ultimately promotes the development of the discipline.
