AI takes the measure of mouth and neck motion in cancer recovery
NCT ID NCT07509619
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study checks if an AI-based system can accurately measure how well people can move their jaw and neck-shoulder area, which is important for oral cancer patients. Twenty healthy adults will perform movement tasks while the AI and two human raters take measurements. The goal is to see if the AI is as reliable as traditional manual methods, which could lead to more consistent assessments in the future.

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
Who is studied
The study population consists of healthy adult volunteers aged 20 to 70 years recruited through non-probability sampling. Participants without a history of trismus, head and neck cancer, or musculoskeletal conditions affecting the head, neck, or shoulder regions are eligible. All participants are capable of following instructions and performing standardized movement tasks. This population is selected to establish baseline measurement performance and to evaluate the reliability and validity of the AI-based physiotherapy evaluation system under controlled conditions.
