Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Radiomics, a recently developed image-processing technology, holds potential in medical diagnostics. This study aimed to propose a machine-learning (ML) model and evaluate its effectiveness in detecting oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and predicting bone metastasis using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
