Oral Cancer Screening, Diagnosis, and Treatment

Oral cancer remains one of the most significant global public health challenges, with early detection playing a decisive role in improving survival rates and patient quality of life. Advances in screening technologies, molecular biomarkers, imaging modalities, genomics, artificial intelligence, and minimally invasive diagnostic techniques have transformed the early identification and management of oral malignancies. Comprehensive treatment strategies involving surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapies, immunotherapy, and rehabilitation continue to evolve through multidisciplinary collaboration and ongoing clinical research.

This session provides a collaborative platform for oncologists, oral surgeons, oral medicine specialists, pathologists, dentists, researchers, and healthcare professionals to discuss current advances in oral oncology. Topics include early screening programs, risk assessment, precancerous lesions, molecular diagnostics, precision medicine, reconstructive surgery, rehabilitation, survivorship care, and emerging therapeutic approaches. Participants will explore innovative research findings and evidence-based clinical practices that contribute to earlier diagnosis, more effective treatment, and improved long-term outcomes for patients affected by oral cancer.
