Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan

Radiological investigations are paramount in the diagnosis and management of various pulmonary diseases. Two essential investigations are the Pulmonary Angiogram and the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan.
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
Positron Emission Tomography01:29

Positron Emission Tomography

Positron emission tomography (PET) is a medical imaging technique involving radiopharmaceuticals — substances that emit short-lived radiation. Although the first PET scanner was introduced in 1961, it took 15 more years before radiopharmaceuticals were combined with the technique and revolutionized its potential.
One of the main requirements of a PET scan is a positron-emitting radioisotope, which is produced in a cyclotron and then attached to a substance used by the part of the body being...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

A new zero-shot large language model (LLM) pipeline accurately summarizes oncologic histories from electronic health records. This automated approach significantly reduces summarization time compared to manual methods, improving efficiency in oncology.

Area of Science:

  • Artificial Intelligence in Medicine
  • Oncology Informatics
  • Natural Language Processing

Background:

  • Gathering oncologic history is crucial but inefficient in clinical practice.
  • Current large language model (LLM) summarization methods require manual effort and subjective evaluation, hindering clinical application.
  • Developing automated, objective methods for generating clinical summaries is essential.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a zero-shot LLM pipeline for programmatic generation of structured oncologic histories.
  • To utilize retrieval-augmented generation to ground LLM outputs for improved accuracy and reliability.
  • To assess the performance of different LLMs in summarizing oncologic history data.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective electronic health record data from thoracic oncology patients were analyzed.
  • A retrieval-augmented generation pipeline was implemented to filter clinical data for summarization.
  • Three HIPAA-compliant LLMs (GPT-4o mini, o3-mini, GPT-5-mini) generated structured summaries using a zero-shot prompt approach.
  • Main Results:

    • The GPT-5-mini pipeline achieved the highest mean completeness score (95.5%) and accuracy (97.9% with o3-mini).
    • GPT-4o mini demonstrated the fastest processing time per summary (12.7 seconds), significantly below the 240-second manual benchmark.
    • Projected time savings could lead to substantial annual revenue increases per radiologist with minimal associated costs.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed LLM pipeline accurately summarizes oncologic history without manual fine-tuning or information retrieval.
    • The completeness and speed of automated summaries vary depending on the specific LLM employed.
    • This automated approach offers a promising solution for efficient and accurate clinical summarization in oncology.
