Abstract
In this review, we assessed the diagnostic efficiency of artificial intelligence (AI) models in detecting temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) using radiographic imaging data. Based upon the PRISMA guidelines, a systematic review of studies published between January 2010 and January 2023 was conducted using PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Embase. Articles on the accuracy of AI to detect TMJOA or degenerative changes by radiographic imaging were selected. The characteristics and diagnostic information of each article were extracted. The quality of studies was assessed by the QUADAS-2 tool. Pooled data for sensitivity, specificity, and summary receiver operating characteristic curve (SROC) were calculated. Of 513 records identified through a database search, six met the inclusion criteria and were collected. The pooled sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve (AUC) were 80%, 90%, and 92%, respectively. Substantial heterogeneity between AI models mainly arose from imaging modality, ethnicity, sex, techniques of AI, and sample size. This article confirmed AI models have enormous potential for diagnosing TMJOA automatically through radiographic imaging. Therefore, AI models appear to have enormous potential to diagnose TMJOA automatically using radiographic images. However, further studies are needed to evaluate AI more thoroughly.
