Radiology Reading Room for the Future: Harnessing the Power of Large Language Models Like ChatGPT

Abstract

Radiology has usually been the field of medicine that has been at the forefront of technological advances, often being the first to wholeheartedly embrace them. Whether it's from digitization to cloud side architecture, radiology has led the way for adopting the latest advances. With the advent of large language models (LLMs), especially with the unprecedented explosion of freely available ChatGPT, time is ripe for radiology and radiologists to find novel ways to use the technology to improve their workflow. Towards this, we believe these LLMs have a key role in the radiology reading room not only to expedite processes, simplify mundane and archaic tasks, but also to increase the radiologist's and radiologist trainee's knowledge base at a far faster pace. In this article, we discuss some of the ways we believe ChatGPT, and the likes can be harnessed in the reading room.
