Resumo: Objective: This study proposed to carry out a bibliometric analysis of epidemiological studies that investigated the diagnosis of oral cancer between 2002 to 2024.
Study Design: In November 2023, the Scopus and Web of Science databases were explored, and the selected articles underwent bibliometric performance analysis and scientific mapping using the R extension package, Bibliometrix and the VOSviewer software.
Results: A total of 504 documents were included. China contributed the highest number of publications (36.71%) and total citations (1,583). Seoane J was the most prolific author [16 (h-index: 9)], while Warnakulasuriya S had the highest total link strength [282 (h-index: 7)] in co-citations. Oral Oncology was identified as the most prolific [231 (45.83%)], co-cited and impactful journal (h-index: 13). Explosions of citations were found for keywords such as "early diagnosis", "biomarker", "saliva", "precancer" and "prognosis", making it evident that in the field of oral cancer diagnosis there is room for new studies focusing in reducing the diagnostic interval, with the research hotspots being the terms "biomarkers", "imaging diagnosis" and "gene expression".
Conclusion: This study provides valuable information that can help researchers and institutions align their research activities according to emerging themes, establish collaborations and allocate resources effectively.
