Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We live in an era of great technological innovation, in which the advent of diagnosis and surgery techniques guided by machine learning and artificial intelligence is profoundly changing every aspect of contemporary medicine and surgery.
Recent years have seen remarkable advancements in shoulder surgery, markedly enhancing patient outcomes for those afflicted with shoulder pathologies such as rotator cuff lesions and osteoarthritis. Innovations in technology, surgical methodologies and the development of new implant designs have paved the way for minimally invasive and personalized surgical approaches.
This Special Issue is dedicated to exploring the essence of cutting-edge advancements and the integration of novel technologies in the field of shoulder surgery. The topics of discussion will include arthroscopic shoulder surgery, shoulder arthroplasty, advanced imaging techniques such as virtual and augmented reality, machine learning and artificial intelligence, and the evolution of implant design. The contributions contained in this issue aim to provide doctors and researchers specializing in shoulder surgery with critical insights into the latest technologies applied to every aspect of shoulder surgery, from diagnosis to treatment and follow-up.
