Artificial Intelligence in Hepatology- Ready for the Primetime

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a mathematical process of computer mediating designing of algorithms to support human intelligence. AI in hepatology has shown tremendous promise to plan appropriate management and hence improve treatment outcomes. The field of AI is in a very early phase with limited clinical use. AI tools such as machine learning, deep learning, and ' are in a continuous phase of evolution, presently being applied for clinical and basic research. In this review, we have summarized various AI applications in hepatology, the pitfalls and AI's future implications. Different AI models and algorithms are under study using clinical, laboratory, endoscopic and imaging parameters to diagnose and manage liver diseases and mass lesions. AI has helped to reduce human errors and improve treatment protocols. Further research and validation are required for future use of AI in hepatology.
