Özet:

The concept of artificial intelligence is an increasing topic of up-to-date and popularity in the health sector, especially in the field of radiology. Today, in medicine and dentistry, images processing and artificial intelligence technologies for the fast and accurate diagnosis of diseases are being studied. It is believed that a series of simple tasks in clinical applications, which can be performed with higher sensitivity than people, less staff and less errors, will increase the efficiency of examinations in clinical applications with the help of doctors. The data obtained from imaging systems such as conic radiated computer tomography, ultrasonography (USG) and magnetic resonance, which are often used in the visualization of the head and neck area, are integrated into artificial intelligence applications. Artificial intelligence applications in dental ultrasound are mainly used in the diagnosis of sperm gland pathologies, temporomandibular in the distinctive diagnosis of joint irregularities; in masseter muscle hypertrophy, in the evaluation of periodontal tissues and in the detection of early periodic changes in the lymph nodes in malignant lesions. Because ultrasound applications in dentistry are more limited than in the medical field, artificial intelligence studies on USG images are also limited. The purpose of this collection is to provide information by evaluating current literature about the applications of artificial intelligence in dental ultrasound.
