GPT-4o, a large language model, demonstrates superior performance to radiologists in protocoling CT scans when provided with appropriate context.
Key Details
- 1Research published in Radiology investigates deploying LLMs like GPT-4o for CT protocoling.
- 2Manual protocoling for CTs consumes up to 6% of radiologists' clinical time.
- 3Incorrect protocols risk nondiagnostic scans and delayed diagnoses.
- 4Proper 'context engineering'—including clinical, technical, and patient-specific data—significantly boosts LLM accuracy.
- 5GPT-4o was designed to excel with detailed, complex prompts.
Why It Matters
Automating CT protocol selection with advanced LLMs could free up radiologists' time for core tasks and reduce interruptions that may cause diagnostic errors. Improved accuracy and efficiency in protocoling can enhance patient care and departmental workflow.
