Artificial Intelligence and Multiple Sclerosis: Up-to-Date Review

Multiple sclerosis (MS) remains a challenging neurological disorder for the clinician in terms of diagnosis and management. The growing integration of AI-based algorithms in healthcare offers a golden opportunity for clinicians and patients with MS. AI models are based on statistical analyses of large quantities of data from patients including "demographics, genetics, clinical and radiological presentation." These approaches are promising in the quest for greater diagnostic accuracy, tailored management plans, and better prognostication of disease. The use of AI in multiple sclerosis represents a paradigm shift in disease management. With ongoing advancements in AI technologies and the increasing availability of large-scale datasets, the potential for further innovation is immense. As AI continues to evolve, its integration into clinical practice will play a vital role in improving diagnostics, optimizing treatment strategies, and enhancing patient outcomes for MS. This review is about conducting a literature review to identify relevant studies on AI applications in MS. Only peer-reviewed studies published in the last four years have been selected. Data related to AI techniques, advancements, and implications are extracted. Through data analysis, key themes and tendencies are identified. The review presents a cohesive synthesis of the current state of AI and MS, highlighting potential implications and new advancements.
