Assessment of device behavior inside patient anatomy is often difficult, and available tools, such as 3-dimensional–printed models, have several limitations. Digital twin (DT) technology has been used successfully in automotive and aerospace industries and applied recently to endovascular aortic aneurysm repair. Artificial intelligence allows the treatment of large amounts of data, and its use in medicine is increasing rapidly. The aim of this review was to present the current status of DTs combined with artificial intelligence for planning endovascular procedures. Patient-specific DTs of the aorta are generated from preoperative computed tomography and integrate aorta mechanical properties using finite element analysis. The same methodology is used to generate 3-dimensional models of aortic stent-grafts and simulate their deployment. Post processing of DT models is then performed to generate multiple parameters related to stent-graft oversizing and apposition. Machine learning algorithms allow parameters to be computed into a synthetic index to predict Type 1A endoleak risk. Other planning and sizing applications include custom-made fenestrated and branched stent-grafts for complex aneurysms. DT technology is also being investigated for planning peripheral endovascular procedures, such as carotid artery stenting. DT provides detailed information on endovascular device behavior. Analysis of DT-derived parameters with machine learning algorithms may improve accuracy in predicting complications, such as Type 1A endoleaks.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51153,"journal":{"name":"Seminars in Vascular Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141853310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As the digital revolution transforms the surgical work environment through broader adoption of artificial intelligence and machine learning, close collaboration between surgeons and computational scientists is not only unavoidable, but will become essential. In this review, the authors summarize the main advances, as well as ongoing challenges and prospects, that surround the implementation of CS techniques in vascular surgery, with a particular focus on the care of patients affected by abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs). Several key areas of AAA care delivery, including patient-specific modelling, virtual surgery simulation, intraoperative imaging-guided surgery, and predictive analytics, as well as biomechanical analysis and machine learning, will be discussed. The overarching goals of these CS applications is to improve the precision and accuracy of AAA repair procedures, while enhancing safety and long-term outcomes. Accordingly, CS has the potential to significantly enhance patient care across the entire surgical journey, from preoperative planning and intraoperative decision making to postoperative surveillance. Moreover, CS-based approaches offer promising opportunities to augment AAA repair quality by enabling precise preoperative simulations, real-time intraoperative navigation, and robust postoperative monitoring. However, integrating these advanced computer-based technologies into medical research and clinical practice presents new challenges. These include addressing technical limitations, ensuring accuracy and reliability, and managing unique ethical considerations associated with their use. Thorough evaluation of these aspects of advanced computation techniques in AAA management is crucial before widespread integration into health care systems can be achieved.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":51153,"journal":{"name":"Seminars in Vascular Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0895796724000437/pdfft?md5=7a63d8ae57ccbee201602bfb78e4635c&pid=1-s2.0-S0895796724000437-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142181848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
