Predicting Corrosion Damage in the Human Body Using Artificial Intelligence: In Vitro Progress and Future Applications

Michael A Kurtz et al. Orthop Clin North Am. 2023 Apr.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is used in the clinic to improve patient care. While the successes illustrate AI's impact, few studies have led to improved clinical outcomes. In this review, we focus on how AI models implemented in nonorthopedic fields of corrosion science may apply to the study of orthopedic alloys. We first define and introduce fundamental AI concepts and models, as well as physiologically relevant corrosion damage modes. We then systematically review the corrosion/AI literature. Finally, we identify several AI models that may be implemented to study fretting, crevice, and pitting corrosion of titanium and cobalt chrome alloys.
