Telemedicine is now being used more frequently to evaluate patients with myasthenia gravis (MG). Assessing this condition involves clinical outcome measures, such as the standardized MG-ADL scale or the more complex MG-CE score obtained during clinical exams. However, human subjectivity limits the reliability of these examinations. We propose a set of AI-powered digital tools to improve scoring efficiency and quality using computer vision, deep learning, and natural language processing. This paper focuses on automating a standard telemedicine video by segmenting it into clips corresponding to the MG-CE assessment. This AI-powered solution offers a quantitative assessment of neurological deficits, improving upon subjective evaluations prone to examiner variability. It has the potential to enhance efficiency, patient participation in MG clinical trials, and broader applicability to various neurological diseases.

The COVID-19 pandemic exposed significant challenges in breast cancer care including healthcare inequities, limited access to surgeries, and difficulties in delivering virtual care. This letter builds upon the findings from the article "The Impact of COVID-19 on Breast Cancer Care" and proposes innovative solutions to address these challenges. Key suggestions include the use of AI-powered digital platforms for remote monitoring, robotic-assisted surgery for enhanced precision, mobile health applications for marginalized populations, and 3D printing for personalized breast reconstruction.

The medical metaverse can be defined as a virtual spatiotemporal framework wherein higher-dimensional medical information is generated, exchanged, and utilized through communication among medical personnel or patients. This occurs through the integration of cutting-edge technologies such as augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), artificial intelligence (AI), big data, cloud computing, and others. We can envision a future neurosurgical operating room that utilizes such medical metaverse concept such as shared extended reality (AR/VR) of surgical field, AI-powered intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring, and real-time intraoperative tissue diagnosis.
