Artificial Intelligence for Ultrasound-Guided Peripheral Nerve and Plane Blocks

"The peripheral nerve and plan block regions (adductor canal, axillary brachial plexus, PECS, popliteal, rectus sheath, ESP, femoral, and superficial cervical plexus regions) and related anatomical landmarks are practised by 3 anesthesiology residents who were in the training program of regional anesthesia and qualified to perform ultrasound guided techniques . Then, scans of 8 block types for all 40 volunteers; when the scan success gauge on the AI software was 100% at the time the images were saved. Using this procedure, 960 ultrasound images were acquired in both raw and AI-processed forms for expert assessment ."
