“The Future of Oral Cancer: How can new technologies change the way they treat?”


With the rapid development of medical technology, revolutionary changes have been brought about in the areas of diagnosis and treatment of oral cancer. The emergence of new technologies not only improves the accuracy of diagnosis, but also provides patients with more personalized and effective treatment. This paper will explore how these new technologies can change the way oral cancer is treated and look forward to future trends.First, advances in early screening techniques are essential for the treatment of oral cancer. While traditional screening methods rely on medical experience and eye observation, modern technologies introduce fluorescent imaging, optically related fault scanning (OCT) and saliva molecular marker testing. Fluorescent imaging techniques can detect unusual areas that are difficult to detect by using specific wavelengths of light for exposure to oral mucous membranes. OCT uses the reflection principles of light waves to provide high-resolution tissue images that help to detect cancer changes at an early stage. The saliva molecule marker detection identifies biomarkers of oral cancer by analysing specific molecules in saliva, such as DNA, RNA or protein. The combination of these early screening techniques has significantly increased the likelihood of early detection of oral cancer, thus securing valuable time for treatment.Second, accurate video screening techniques play an increasingly important role in the diagnosis of oral cancer. While traditional X-rays and CT scans can provide some diagnostic information, they have limited resolution and contrast, and sometimes it is difficult to determine accurately the boundaries and depth of cancer. Modern magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and electron launch fault scanning (PET-CT) technologies provide more accurate images. MRI is able to clearly show a soft organizational structure, which helps to assess the extent of cancer aggression against the surrounding organization. PET-CT combines the metabolic information of PET and the anatomical structure of the CT to better locate the tumor and assess its activity. These state-of-the-art imaging techniques provide more precise guidance for surgical cision and help to develop more rational treatments.Targeted and immunotherapy is a breakthrough in recent years in the area of advanced oral cancer treatment. Target-oriented treatment inhibits the growth and spread of tumours by targeting molecular targets specific to cancer cells, such as the skin growth factor receptor (EGFR) or the vascular inner skin growth factor (VEGF). Such treatment usually has high-targeted and low side effects, providing new treatment options for late-stage oral cancer patients. Immunization treatment enables patients to identify and attack cancer cells by activation or enhancement of their immune system. For example, PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors can disrupt mechanisms for tumour cells to escape immunization surveillance, thus stimulating attacks on cancer cells in the immune system. Not only are these treatments effective in extending a patient ‘ s lifespan, they can also significantly improve the quality of life of the patient.In addition to the above-mentioned technologies, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in oral cancer treatment is becoming more widespread. AI algorithms enable the analysis of a large amount of medical image data and help doctors to diagnose diseases more quickly and accurately. For example, in-depth learning techniques can be used to analyse pathological slice images and automatically recognize the characteristics of cancer cells. In addition, AI can be used to predict treatment outcomes and patient prognosis, providing a scientific basis for the development of individualized treatment programmes.Looking ahead, the treatment of oral cancer will become more accurate and efficient with advances in cutting-edge technologies such as genomics, nanotechnology and bioinformatics. Genetic editing techniques such as CRISP-Cas9 may be used to repair or shut down pathogenic genes in cancer cells and thus to achieve root-based treatment. Nanopharmaceutical delivery systems are able to deliver drugs directly to cancer cells, increasing the targeting and efficiency of treatment. The development of bioinformatics will contribute to a better understanding of mechanisms for the onset of oral cancer and provide a theoretical basis for the development of new treatments and strategies.In short, the treatment of oral cancer is undergoing a profound change with the emergence of new technologies. The application of early screening techniques, accurate video screening, target treatment and immunotherapy have made the treatment of oral cancer more efficient and accurate. In the future, with further advances in science and technology, we have reason to believe that the survival and quality of life of people with oral cancer will be significantly improved, and that this once feared disease will gradually become a manageable and curable disease.
