Artificial intelligence-assisted detection of oral cancer and oral potentially malignant disorders on smartphone images: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Smartphone-based AI can help detect oral cancer from images, potentially enabling earlier diagnosis in areas lacking specialist care.
This PubMed-indexed study examined bACKGROUND: Accurate early diagnosis of oral cancerous lesions is critical for effective treatment and reliable prognosis prediction. The abstract reports cONCLUSION: AI detection models based on smartphone images have demonstrated promising performance in diagnostic analyses, showing significant potential for screening OPMDs and oral cancers, especially in low-resource settings.
