BreastGAN: Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Breast Augmentation Simulation

Abstract: Background Managing patient expectations is important to ensuring patient satisfaction in aesthetic medicine. To this end, computer technology developed to photograph, digitize, and manipulate three-dimensional (3D) objects has been applied to the female breast. However, the systems remain complex, physically cumbersome, and extremely expensive. Objectives The authors of the current study wish to introduce the plastic surgery… Show more

“…Worldwide, breast augmentation is the most common surgical procedure performed by plastic surgeons, representing 17.6% of all plastic surgical procedures [ 6 ]. Of the 1,862,506 breast augmentations performed worldwide in 2018, 17.3% were performed in the United States, followed by Brazil (14.8%), Mexico (3.8%), Germany (3.5%), Italy (3.5%), Argentina (2.7%), and Colombia (2.3%) [ 11 ].…”

“…Pre-operative planning involves testing several breast implants in order to choose the one that best suits the patient. This kind of simulation has been demonstrated to improve post-operative patient satisfaction overall and with respect to breast size [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 ]. Nevertheless, this kind of simulation may not be realistic, as sizers are applied in the bra over the breast, patients may not be wearing the right garments, and a large variety of implants may not be available (round or anatomical: XP, HP, MP) in the surgeon’s office.…”

“…During the stage of online patient consultation, artificial intelligent virtual assistants (AIVA) using NLP technology understands the intent of human speech and provide answers in the form of dialogue. A study used AIVA to chat with patients on common plastic surgery topics [17] . The overall answer accuracy of the plastic surgery AIVA was 92.3%, and 83.3% of the participants thought the answers were correct [17] .…”

“…This constitutes an impetus for a consensus media quality standard to be respected across all institutions and research groups, such that datasets are no longer siloed by heterogeneity. 30 Lastly, establishing a "ground truth" for algorithm training purposes has proven difficult in surgical education because unanimity of dissection technique or instrument use is rarely achieved between multiple surgeons. 29 In a recent study, Madani et al 31 proposed a framework to achieve consensus among minimally invasive surgeons.…”
