Abstract
In the last decades, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) has been increasingly investigated in intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) and chronic low back pain (LBP) research. To date, several AI-based cutting-edge technologies, such as computer vision, computer-assisted diagnosis, decision support system and natural language processing have been utilized to optimize LBP prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. This talk will provide an outline on contemporary AI applications to IDD and LBP research, with a particular attention towards actual knowledge gaps and promising innovative tools.
