**2. Methodology**

On 30 January 2023, a bibliographic search was carried out in PubMed and the Cochrane Library (Cochrane Reviews) using "artificial intelligence musculoskeletal" as keywords. We found 957 articles in PubMed and 18 in the Cochrane Library (of which 10 were repeated in PubMed). In other words, we used a total of 965 article abstracts, of which we finally analyzed 51 because we subjectively considered them to be the best and most closely related to the chapter title. The remaining 914 articles were excluded (**Figure 1**). This way of including and excluding articles and the fact that we did not use other bibliographic search engines (Web of Science, Google Scholar, and Embase) can be considered as two limitations of this chapter, as some important publications were probably not included in it. In addition, due to the novelty of the topic studied, we have included one book and three websites because of their relevance and the topicality of their content. However, we would like to mention that the bibliographical references are so abundant (thousands) that one way or another, there could always be something important left out, even if a systematic review and meta-analysis is carried out.
