1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Recently, there has been tremendous interest on the use of large language models (LLMs) in radiology. LLMs have been employed for various applications in cancer imaging, including improving reporting speed and accuracy via generation of standardized reports, automating the classification and staging of abnormal findings in reports, incorporating appropriate guidelines, and calculating individualized risk scores. Another use of LLMs is their ability to improve patient comprehension of imaging reports with simplification of the medical terms and possible translations to multiple languages. Additional future applications of LLMs include multidisciplinary tumor board standardizations, aiding patient management, and preventing and predicting adverse events (contrast allergies, MRI contraindications) and cancer imaging research. However, limitations such as hallucinations and variable performances could present obstacles to widespread clinical implementation. Herein, we present a review of the current and future applications of LLMs in cancer imaging, as well as pitfalls and limitations.
