Abstract

Liver surgery requires personalized preoperative planning, especially in case of major liver resections. In this chapter, we explore how AI-based technologies can help hepatopancreatobiliary surgeons to plan the best surgical procedure for each patient. In particular, we analyze the role of virtual 3D-models in surgical planning, describing the current practical applications, future perspectives, and challenges in this field. Virtual 3D-models allow us to establish the correct surgical indication for each patient, plan the amount of liver to be resected, and perform a tailored surgery.
