Background: Amidst the global rise of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), driven by increasing obesity rates, there is a pressing need for precise, non-invasive diagnostic tools. Our research aims to validate MRI Proton Density Fat Fraction (MRI-PDFF) utility, compared to liver biopsy, in grading hepatic steatosis in MASLD.

Methods: A systematic search was conducted across Embase, PubMed/Medline, Scopus, and Web of Science until January 13, 2024, selecting studies that compare MRI-PDFF with liver biopsy for hepatic steatosis grading, defined as grades 0 (< 5% steatosis), 1 (5-33% steatosis), 2 (34-66% steatosis), and 3 (> 66% steatosis).

Background: The screening process for systematic reviews and meta-analyses in medical research is a labor-intensive and time-consuming task. While machine learning and deep learning have been applied to facilitate this process, these methods often require training data and user annotation. This study aims to assess the efficacy of ChatGPT, a large language model based on the Generative Pretrained Transformers (GPT) architecture, in automating the screening process for systematic reviews in radiology without the need for training data.
