Rol de la inteligencia artificial profunda en la cirugía plástica: transformando el arte con inteligencia

Deep learning, a branch of artificial intelligence (AI), is revolutionizing modern medicine through its capacity for pattern recognition, data-driven decision support, and predictive analytics. In plastic surgery, a specialty that merges precision with artistry, deep learning is emerging as a transformative tool. From reconstructive planning and aesthetic simulations to postoperative monitoring and skill assessment, AI is reshaping the scope of surgical innovation. However, challenges related to data quality, ethics, and integration into clinical workflows remain. This editorial explores the expanding role of deep learning in plastic surgery and emphasizes its potential to augment, rather than replace, surgical expertise.
