Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Developing neural network-based models for image analysis can be time-consuming, requiring dataset design and model training. No-code AI platforms allow users to annotate object features without coding. Corrective annotation, a "human-in-the-loop" approach, refines AI segmentations iteratively. Dentistry has seen success with no-code AI for segmenting dental restorations. This study aims to assess radiographic features related to root canal treatment quality using a "human-in-the-loop" approach.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) and specifically deep learning (DL) have shown great potential in finding radiographic features and treatment planning in the field of cariology and endodontics. A growing body of literature suggests that DL models might assist dental practitioners in detecting radiographic features such as carious lesions, and periapical lesions, as well as predicting the risk of pulp exposure when doing caries excavation therapy. Although, the current literature lacks sufficient research on the interaction of participants and AI in an AI-based platform for detecting features associated with technical quality of endodontic treatment. This prospective randomized controlled trial aims to assess the performance of students when using an AI-based platform for detecting features associated with technical quality of endodontic treatment and predicting the long term prognosis of the treatment. The hypothesis is that participants' performance in the group with access to AI responses is similar to the control group without access to AI responses.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

participants using guidance from artificial Intelligence

the experimental arm refers to the group of participants who have access to the AI-based platform for detecting features associated with the technical quality of endodontic treatment. These participants will utilize the AI assistance during the study.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

AI guidance for finding radiographic features

Intervention Type DEVICE

A secured website was made for the trial in which each student could log in using the assigned number. All the image datasets were uploaded to this website. The students will be randomly assigned to the experiment and control group. Both students were asked to segment the features associated with the quality of root canal treatment and predict the prognosis of treatment while the experiment group had access to AI guidance and the control group didn't.

Control arm without any guidance from artificial Intelligence

the control arm consists of participants who do not have access to the AI-based platform. They will perform the same tasks or assessments as those in the experimental arm but without the assistance of AI.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group
