This study was aimed at exploring the application value of electroacupuncture in the treatment of peripheral facial palsy using surface nerve electromyogram (EMG) image data based on deep learning. The surface nerve EMG recognition model was construc...
Facial paralysis (FP) is an inability to move facial muscles voluntarily, affecting daily activities. There is a need for quantitative assessment and severity level classification of FP to evaluate the condition. None of the available tools are widel...
PURPOSE: In order to assess the severity and the progression of a unilateral peripheral facial palsy the Sunnybrook Facial Grading System (SFGS) is a well-established grading system due to its clinical relevance, sensitivity, and robust measuring met...

OBJECTIVE: Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease leading to fatigable muscle weakness. Extra-ocular and bulbar muscles are most commonly affected. We aimed to investigate whether facial weakness can be quantified automatically and used for ...
Automated evaluation of facial palsy using machine learning offers a promising solution to the limitations of current assessment methods, which can be time-consuming, labor-intensive, and subject to clinician bias. Deep learning-driven systems have t...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Arguably one of the most disruptive innovations in medicine of the past decade, artificial intelligence is dramatically changing how healthcare is practiced today. A systematic review of the most recent artificial intelligence adva...
Facial nerve paralysis (FNP) impair eyelid closure and blinking, risking ophthalmic complications and vision loss. Current detection methods primarily rely on static facial asymmetries, overlooking the dynamic eyelid movements during blinking that ar...
