Abstract:
With the approaches of artificial intelligence and big data, the development of cancer genomics and updating of imaging technology, gastric cancer surgery is facing great challenges and opportunities. The main focus is on laparoscopic surgery technology, enhanced recovery after surgery, multidisciplinary comprehensive treatment, and precision medicine. Considering the common de-mand for reduced complication rate among doctors and patients, laparoscopic surgery has become widely popular owing to its advan-tages of small incision and rapid recovery. Furthermore, the development of artificial intelligence and big data has raised a new chal-lenge in routine diagnosis and treatment. As a result, we encourage multicenter cooperation, and data standardization and sharing. At present, completion of the transition from empirical medicine to evidence-based medicine and promotion of the individualization and standardization of gastric cancer treatment are needed.
