Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) will power many of the tools in the armamentarium of digital surgeons. AI methods and surgical proof-of-concept flourish, but we have yet to witness clinical translation and value. Here we exemplify the potential of AI in the care pathway of colorectal cancer patients and discuss clinical, technical, and governance considerations of major importance for the safe translation of surgical AI for the benefit of our patients and practices.
