Facial weakness prediction improved with the acoustic neuroma model post-surgery, enhancing patient care.
The model demonstrated higher accuracy than previous methods, achieving an area under the curve of 0.807 in main cohort.
Validation across two medical centers confirmed robust performance, with favorable calibration in predicting outcomes.
This model is significant for identifying high-risk patients needing early intervention for facial reanimation surgery.
