Abstract

BACKGROUND: The larynx of infants and neonates is occasionally challenging to identify using video laryngoscope. This study aimed to develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted model that can identify the larynx, including the opening vocal cord and the arytenoid portion, on images obtained using a video laryngoscope.
