"Normal" Cervical Spine Radiographs and Computed Tomography Scans in the Emergency Department: Beware of Posttraumatic Instability of the Mobile Segment of the Lower Cervical Spine.
World Neurosurg

Neurosurgery Department, Sainte-Anne Military Teaching Hospital, Toulon, France.

Article Synopsis
- This study explores the accuracy and completeness of ChatGPT in answering common questions about upper limb orthopedic conditions that patients may ask.
- Physicians graded ChatGPT's responses to 5 specific hand conditions, scoring its accuracy at an average of 4.83 out of 6 and completeness at 2 out of 3.
- The findings suggest that while ChatGPT provides mostly accurate information, it often lacks completeness, and patients should be cautious about solely relying on AI for medical advice.
