Pre-operative magnetic resonance imaging for evaluating depth of invasion in oral tongue cancer: Precision and predictive value.
BACKGROUND Accurate evaluation of the depth of invasion (DOI) in oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (OTSCC) is essential for staging and treatment planning. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly used as a non-invasive method for preoperative DOI assessment, though further validation against histopathology i...
