AI Article Synopsis

  • The study investigates the effectiveness of the Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 with vision in diagnosing vitreoretinal diseases in real-world settings at Bascom Palmer Eye Clinic, analyzing retrospective patient data from 2010 to 2023.
  • Results showed low diagnostic accuracy, with 13.7% for open-ended questions and 31.3% for multiple-choice questions, while ICD-10 coding accuracy was similarly low, particularly struggling with complex cases.
  • The findings suggest that while the model has potential in clinical care, particularly for standardized questions, it has significant limitations in handling more complex medical inquiries.

Article Abstract

Purpose: This study evaluates a large language model, Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 with vision, for diagnosing vitreoretinal diseases in real-world ophthalmology settings.

Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study at Bascom Palmer Eye Clinic, analyzing patient data from January 2010 to March 2023, assesses Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 with vision's performance on retinal image analysis and International Classification of Diseases 10th revision coding across 2 patient groups: simpler cases (Group A) and complex cases (Group B) requiring more in-depth analysis. Diagnostic accuracy was assessed through open-ended questions and multiple-choice questions independently verified by three retina specialists.

Results: In 256 eyes from 143 patients, Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4-V demonstrated a 13.7% accuracy for open-ended questions and 31.3% for multiple-choice questions, with International Classification of Diseases 10th revision code accuracies at 5.5% and 31.3%, respectively. Accurately diagnosed posterior vitreous detachment, nonexudative age-related macular degeneration, and retinal detachment. International Classification of Diseases 10th revision coding was most accurate for nonexudative age-related macular degeneration, central retinal vein occlusion, and macular hole in OEQs, and for posterior vitreous detachment, nonexudative age-related macular degeneration, and retinal detachment in multiple-choice questions. No significant difference in diagnostic or coding accuracy was found in Groups A and B.

Conclusion: Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 with vision has potential in clinical care and record keeping, particularly with standardized questions. Its effectiveness in open-ended scenarios is limited, indicating a significant limitation in providing complex medical advice.

Objective: Brief hospital course (BHC) summaries are clinical documents that summarize a patient's hospital stay. While large language models (LLMs) depict remarkable capabilities in automating real-world tasks, their capabilities for healthcare applications such as synthesizing BHCs from clinical notes have not been shown. We introduce a novel preprocessed dataset, the MIMIC-IV-BHC, encapsulating clinical note and BHC pairs to adapt LLMs for BHC synthesis.
