Abstract
Oral cancer (OC) is the most common forms of head and neck cancer. Even with advancing research it still continues to have lowest survival rate globally. Histopathologiy still remains the gold standard for oral cancer diagnosis. But, it has few drawbacks being prone to errors (variability) and is time consuming leading to delay in diagnosis. In order to overcome these pitfalls there is a need for alternative diagnostic approaches which are faster and accurate at the same time. Considerable efforts have been focused on exploring the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in medical diagnostics in recent times. The role of AI in medical imaging and diagnosis seems promising. Key benefit of AI is better accuracy, rapid diagnosis and reduced manual visualization of slides. This review article focuses on the role of AI in oral cancer detection with emphasis on machine learning and deep learning methods, decision support systems. Future challenges, benefits and limitations of AI have also been discussed.
