Lin Chung Er Bi Yan Hou Tou Jing Wai Ke Za Zhi. 2022 Aug;36(8):647-650. doi: 10.13201/j.issn.2096-7993.2022.08.017.

ABSTRACT

In the diagnosis and treatment of throat disease, the application and development of combining voice analysis or endoscopic technology with artificial intelligence has developed rapidly. This paper reviews the history and principles of the combination of voice analysis or endoscopic technology with artificial intelligence, summarizes its status of application and development, and sums up its advantages that lie in the strong learning and interpretation ability, amazing speed and tolerance, and stable replication and expansion. The key to restrict its development is the uncertainty in the process of machine learning, the error caused by small samples, and the ethical philosophical thinking. Future development direction should be that the surgeons in otolaryngology head and neck department on the basis of excellent professional knowledge, learn related knowledge of epidemiology, classic statistics, strengthen the exchanges and cooperation with machine learning developers. Eventually, advanced science and technology can be truly used in clinical practice to maximize the benefit of the majority of patients.
