Description

Shima Soleimani Sardou and co-authors compare in 2025 how well AI models and a human specialist sort mouth lesions from photos, aiming at earlier oral cancer detection. The cancer is a global burden, and its varied look makes early spotting hard. Photos taken inside the mouth offer a cheap screening route.

The data set held 518 clinic images gathered over 2009 to 2023 at a dental faculty in Kerman. Of these, 104 showed malignant lesions and 414 benign or normal tissue, all confirmed by a pathology specialist. Three pretrained deep networks were tested on the set. A model that matches the specialist could triage photos in clinics with no specialist nearby. The authors report how close each model came.
