Abstract

AIM: Developing and implementing screening protocols that facilitate the identification of oral cancer at its earliest stages or even its precursors. Emphasis is placed on utilizing a multi-modal approach that encompasses both traditional clinical examination techniques and advanced adjunctive tools. This includes visual inspection, tissue biopsy, vital staining, exfoliative cytology, and emerging optical imaging technologies, each contributing to a more comprehensive screening process.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: The material and methods employed encompass a multi-faceted approach integrating various screening modalities, risk assessment
tools, interdisciplinary collaboration, and utilization of emerging technologies.
RESULTS: The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the oral cancer screening program in enhancing early detection rates and facilitating timely intervention for individuals at risk. By leveraging a multi-modal approach, risk assessment tools, interdisciplinary collaboration, and emerging technologies, the screening program has made significant strides towards reducing the burden of oral cancer and improving the quality of patient care.
CONCLUSION: The screening is to shift the paradigm towards early detection, thereby reducing the burden of late-stage diagnoses and improving overall patient outcomes. Through a combination of multi-modal screening approaches, risk stratification, interdisciplinary collaboration, and integration of advanced technologies, this can be realized, ultimately leading to a significant positive impact on public health.
