Abstract:
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders have been misinterpreted by various normal TMJ features leading to treatment failure. This study assessed deep learning algorithms, DenseNet-121 and InceptionV3, for multi-class classification of TMJ normal variations and disorders in 1,710 panoramic radiographs. The overall accuracy of DenseNet-121 and InceptionV3 were 0.99 and 0.95, respectively. The AUC from 0.99 to 1.00, indicating high performance for TMJ disorders classification in panoramic radiographs.
