Pitting three multipurpose LLMs against two healthcare-specific AI tools, researchers have discovered the consumer-level AI can beat its purpose-built counterparts in healthcare scenarios—and soundly, at that.
Researchers believe the technique also could have utility for brain, head and neck MRI applications and could eventually be adapted to other imaging modalities as well.
“We have colonoscopies, we have mammograms, but we have not had equivalents for most forms of heart disease,” Pierre Elias, MD, Pathway Labs founder and CEO, explained.
The new F-18 flurpiridaz radiotracer is expected to help drive cardiac PET growth, but it requires waiting between rest and stress scans. Software from MultiFunctional Imaging can help care teams combat that problem.
The country’s largest insurer launched its Designated Diagnostic Provider program in 2022, steering beneficiaries to imaging centers that meet quality and efficiency requirements.
“Unlike [prior authorization], this model does not delay patient care and does not hold members liable to pay for unneeded exams,” writes radiologist Mark Hiatt, MD, MBA.
