Innovative Progress: Artificial Intelligence in the Realm of Oral Cancer

Abstract

In recent years, there has been a notable increase in the global incidence of oral cancer, leading to significant morbidity and mortality, especially when diagnosed at advanced stages. The integration: In recent years, there has been a notable increase in the global incidence of oral cancer, leading to significant morbidity and mortality, especially when diagnosed at advanced stages. The integration of technology holds great promise for early detection and diagnosis, facilitating improved patient management for clinicians. The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) presents a potential breakthrough in oral cancer screening, as it can meticulously analyze vast datasets from various imaging modalities, offering valuable support in the field of oncology. This review focuses on a spectrum of AI techniques utilized for early detection and diagnosis of oral cancer. Additionally, AI techniques may be employed for the effective treatment of oral cancer. Using the abundance of information acquired, this article provides an in-depth overview and discussion of AI's value and benefits in oral cancer screening, early detection, disease prediction, and therapy, among other areas. Furthermore, it identifies present limits and forecasts the hopeful future of AI in oral cancer research.
