Article Synopsis
- The study evaluates the effectiveness of artificial intelligence (AI) versus a semi-automated method in determining the Cone Beam Computed Tomography Periapical Volume Index (CBCTPAVI) score, which assesses the size of periapical lesions in three dimensions.
- Out of 500 tooth roots examined, the AI matched the semi-automated score 84.4% of the time but struggled with smaller lesions (scores 1 and 2), achieving high precision and accuracy for larger lesions (scores 0 and 3-6).
- The findings suggest that AI can significantly speed up the assessment process for periapical lesions, potentially improving clinical practice, but it needs further improvement
