The world's first patient to have brain surgery with live AI assistance has successfully had his tumour removed.
 
48-year-old Rhys Hibbert, from Bedfordshire, could have lost his sight without the operation, said surgeons at University College London Hospital.
 
The AI tool analysed a video feed of the operation as it allowed them to safely remove as much of the tumour as possible.
