SPEAKER: Dr. Ozanan R. Meireles, MD, FACS  is a highly respected surgeon, researcher, and innovator at the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI), data science, and surgical practice. He serves as an Associate Professor of Surgery and the inaugural Vice Chair for Innovation in the Department of Surgery at Duke University School of Medicine. In this role, he also acts as the Surgical Director of Duke AI Health and leads the Surgical Artificial Intelligence and Innovation Laboratory (SAIIL), where he drives interdisciplinary research to integrate AI into clinical workflows to improve surgical decision-making and outcomes. Dr. Meireles is internationally recognized for his work in minimally invasive and endoluminal surgery and has extensive experience from his tenure at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), where he founded and directed SAIIL and collaborated closely with the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. He earned his medical degree from São Paulo State University (Brazil) and completed surgical residency and fellowships in the United States, including a Minimally Invasive Surgery fellowship at the University of California San Diego and research experience at Johns Hopkins University

TARGET AUDIENCE: This session is designed for oral and maxillofacial surgeons, plastic surgeons, ENT surgeons, general surgeons, and other healthcare professionals interested in the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in surgical practice. It is particularly valuable for those aiming to enhance patient care, streamline surgical workflows, and stay at the forefront of innovation in the field of cranio-maxillofacial and general surgery.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

At the conclusion of this session, participants should be able to:

1. Understand the Fundamentals of AI in Surgery:

   • Describe the basic principles of surgical artificial intelligence, including machine learning, computer vision, and natural language processing, and how these technologies are applied in clinical practice.

2. Evaluate Applications of AI in Surgical Planning and Execution:

   • Explore how AI-driven tools can enhance surgical planning, including virtual simulations, predictive modeling, and intraoperative navigation systems.

   • Discuss the role of AI in improving precision and outcomes in procedures such as craniofacial reconstruction, tumor resection, and orthognathic surgery.

3. Address Ethical and Practical Considerations:

   • Analyze ethical challenges, such as data privacy, bias in algorithms, and the implications of AI for decision-making and patient autonomy.

   • Explore strategies to integrate AI responsibly into clinical workflows while maintaining a patient-centered approach.

4. Assess AI's Role in Enhancing Education and Collaboration:

   • Identify how AI can revolutionize surgical education through virtual reality, augmented reality, and automated feedback systems.

   • Highlight the potential for AI to facilitate global collaboration and knowledge exchange in cranio-maxillofacial and general surgery.

5. Examine the Future of AI in Surgery:

   • Discuss emerging trends and innovations in surgical AI, including robotics, augmented intelligence, and real-time decision support systems.

   • Anticipate the long-term impact of AI on surgical outcomes, training, and the evolution of surgical specialties.

This educational session links directly to the topics in cranio-maxillofacial surgery, showcasing how AI can support innovation in areas like advanced reconstruction, tumor management, and addressing complex craniofacial cases. By aligning technology with clinical expertise, it underscores AI’s transformative potential in enhancing surgical precision, planning, and patient outcomes.
