LEARNING OBJECTIVES

How is Artificial Intelligence reshaping the daily reality of Orthopaedics and Traumatology?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is no longer a futuristic concept—it is actively transforming clinical decision-making, surgical workflows, and data-driven orthopaedic research. As part of our ongoing Digitalisation and AI in Orthopaedics & Traumatology series, this specialised webinar bridges the gap between complex technological theory and practical, real-world application.

The objectives of this Webinar are: 

  • Evaluate the Clinical Utility of AI in Trauma: Understand how AI algorithms are currently being applied to enhance diagnosis, fracture classification, predictive outcome modelling and other applications in orthopaedic trauma practice and research.

  • Analyse European Digitalisation Trends: Synthesize the latest insights into, technologies, research, clinical translation, implementation and the regulatory environment emerging from the OTdigital 2026 congress to stay ahead of the curve about digital healthcare technology adoption in orthopaedics and traumatology. 

  • Appraise the Human versus (or with) Machine Paradigm: Critically assess the evolving relationship between AI-driven automation and surgical human expertise and skill, identifying how AI acts as an augmentation tool and supportive agent rather than a replacement but reshaping the future of the profession.

  • Engage in Translational Dialogue: Formulate approaches to effectively bridge technological AI applications from bench to bedside (and back), fostering collaboration between data scientists, engineering researchers and frontline orthopaedic clinicians ensuring patient-centred adoption of digital technologies and AI.
