Introduction

Cancer screening is the procedure that aims to detect cancer before any signs or symptoms of cancer arise; it is potentially useful for medical diagnosis because early detection of cancer greatly increases the chances for successful treatment [1]. For the case of oral cancer, screening is particularly important as survival does correlate with stage, making early diagnosis and treatment optimal for this disease [2]. Unfortunately, the diagnosis continues to rely on physical examination followed by biopsy confirmation, which could result in delay in diagnosis [3].
