Description
Summary:The application of artificial intelligence (AI) based on deep learning in dental diagnostic imaging is increasing. Several popular deep learning tasks have been applied to dental diagnostic images.Classification tasks are used to classify images with and without positive abnormal findings or to evaluate the progress of a lesion based on imaging findings. Region (object) detection and segmentation tasks have been used for tooth identification in panoramic radiographs. This technique is useful for automatically creating a patient's dental chart. Deep learning methods can also be used for detecting and evaluating anatomical structures of interest from images. Furthermore, generative AI based on natural language processing can automatically create written reports from the findings of diagnostic imaging.
