Abstract
The rapid evolution of modern technology has made artificial intelligence (AI) an important emerging tool in healthcare. AI, which is a broad field of computer science, can be used to develop systems or machines equipped with the ability to tackle tasks that traditionally necessitate human intelligence. AI can be used to perform multifaceted tasks that involve the synthesis of large amounts of data with the generation of solutions, algorithms, and decision support tools. Various AI approaches, including machine learning (ML) and natural language processing (NLP), are increasingly being used to analyze vast healthcare datasets. In addition, visual AI has the potential to revolutionize surgery and the intraoperative experience for surgeons through augmented reality enhancing surgical navigation in real-time. Specific applications of AI in hepatobiliary tumors such as hepatocellular carcinoma and biliary tract cancer can improve patient diagnosis, prognostic risk stratification, as well as treatment allocation based on ML-based models. The integration of radiomics data and AI models can also improve clinical decision making. We herein review how AI may be of particular interest in the care of patients with complex cancers, such as hepatobiliary tumors, as these patients often require a multimodal treatment approach.
