Abstract
Purpose of review: This narrative review aims to outline the current available evidence, challenges, and future perspectives of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the diagnosis and management of priapism, a condition marked by prolonged and often painful erections that presents unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.
Recent findings: Recent advancements in AI offer promising solutions to face the challenges in diagnosing and treating priapism. AI models have demonstrated the potential to predict the need for surgical intervention and improve diagnostic accuracy. The integration of AI models into medical decision-making for priapism can also predict long-term consequences. AI is currently being implemented in urology to enhance diagnostics and treatment work-up for various conditions, including priapism. Traditional diagnostic approaches rely heavily on assessments based on history, leading to potential delays in treatment with possible long-term sequelae. To date, the role of AI in the management of priapism is understudied, yet to achieve dependable and effective models that can reliably assist physicians in making decisions regarding both diagnostic and treatment strategies.
期刊介绍:
This journal intends to review the most important, recently published findings in the field of urology. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts, the journal elucidates current and emerging approaches to the care and prevention of urologic diseases and conditions.
We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia, erectile dysfunction, female urology, and kidney disease. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An international Editorial Board reviews the annual table of contents, suggests articles of special interest to their country/region, and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Commentaries from well-known figures in the field are also provided.
