Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming an increasingly prevalent tool across medical and surgical disciplines, with numerous specialities looking to implement this powerful technology in day-to-day clinical practice. Current and future medical students will begin to frequently encounter AI in their careers, and here we analyse the potential role of AI in urology. With growing pressures on urology departments globally, could AI be the solution to managing urological diseases in a growing population with increasing comorbidities? With a number of clinical applications, this work identifies several key domains where AI can make a substantive difference to urology. Working symbiotically with urologists, AI can be harnessed to improve the surgical outcomes of patients, while also enhancing surgical education and decision-making. From increased clinician productivity to enhanced anatomical training, embracing AI will modernise the practice of urology. Research has already been undertaken to demonstrate AI’s value in urology, and further attention must be given to integrate this powerful tool into the urologist’s arsenal.
