Abstract
BACKGROUND: Loss of chromosome 9p is an important biomarker in the malignant transformation of oral leukoplakia (OLK) to head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), and is associated with the prognosis of HNSCC patients. However, various challenges have prevented 9p loss from being assessed in clinical practice. The objective of this study was to develop a pathomics-based artificial intelligence (AI) model for the rapid and cost-effective prediction of 9p loss (9PLP).
