Abstract

 Early detection of maxillofacial tumors remains a critical challenge in modern medicine due to the anatomical complexity of the region and the often-asymptomatic nature of early-stage lesions. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and radiological imaging technologies have significantly improved diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. This study aims to analyze the role of AI-based systems and modern imaging modalities in the early detection of maxillofacial tumors. A comprehensive review of recent literature and clinical data was conducted, focusing on diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of AI-assisted imaging techniques. The findings indicate that AI integration into radiology enhances early tumor detection, reduces diagnostic errors, and supports clinical decision-making. The study highlights the transformative potential of AI in maxillofacial oncology.
