Artificial Intelligence Versus Clinical Examination in White Spot Lesions Detection, Identification, And Scoring
Sponsor: Cairo University
Summary
The goal of this observational study is to compare the diagnostic accuracy of Clinical examination as a standard for detection, identification and scoring of White Spot Lesions Versus Artificial intelligence analysis of intraoral photographs. The photographs are examined by experienced dental professionals to maintain diagnostic accuracy. Machine learning models YOLO and Mask-RCNN will analyze these images in three phases: pre-analytical, analytical and post-analytical. A dataset of 329 labelled photographs, annotated by experts, is used to train these models. Data augmentation methods enhance model performance, and accuracy is assessed against clinical examination results to confirm reliability. The main question it aims to answer is: \- Is artificial intelligence analysis of intraoral photographs as accurate as clinical assessment in the detection, identification, and scoring of white spot lesions among adult Egyptian patients attending Cairo University Dental Hospital?
