Abstract

The aim of this paper is to report one of the significant applications of artificial intelligence (AI) and how it affects everyday clinical practice in neurosurgery. The authors present a case in which a patient was diagnosed via an AI algorithm during ongoing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). According to this algorithm, the corresponding physicians were immediately warned, and the patient received prompt appropriate treatment. A 46-year-old female presenting with nonspecific headache was admitted to undergo MRI. Scanning revealed an intraparenchymal mass that was detected by an AI algorithm running on real-time patient data while the patient was still in the MRI scanner. The day after MRI, a stereotactic biopsy was performed. The pathology report confirmed an isocitrate dehydrogenase wild-type diffuse glioma. The patient was referred to the oncology department for evaluation and immediate treatment. This is the first report of a glioma diagnosed by an AI algorithm and a subsequent prompt operation in the literature-the first of many and an example of how AI will enhance clinical practice.
