Application of a deep learning method based on CBCT panoramic reconstruction images for differentiating operationally defined cystic and neoplastic jaw lesions from osteomyelitis: a single-center retrospective study.
An artificial intelligence model shows promise on specialized jaw imaging but needs multicenter validation before clinical use.
This Sci Rep single-center retrospective study evaluates a deep learning model on CBCT panoramic reconstructions for jaw lesion differentiation. While the model shows diagnostic promise, the single-center retrospective design and limited sample size require multicenter validation before clinical deployment.
