The Effectiveness of Large Language Models in Providing Automated Feedback in Medical Imaging Education: A Protocol for a Systematic Review

Abstract

Background Large Language Models (LLMs) represent an ever-emerging and rapidly evolving generative artificial intelligence (AI) modality with promising developments in the field of medical education. LLMs can provide automated feedback services to medical trainees (i.e. medical students, residents, fellows, etc.) and possibly serve a role in medical imaging education.

Aim This systematic review aims to comprehensively explore the current applications and educational outcomes of LLMs in providing automated feedback on medical imaging reports.

Methods This study employs a comprehensive systematic review strategy, involving an extensive search of the literature (Pubmed, Scopus, Embase, and Cochrane), data extraction, and synthesis of the data.

Conclusion This systematic review will highlight the best practices of LLM use in automated feedback of medical imaging reports and guide further development of these models.

Author Declarations

I confirm all relevant ethical guidelines have been followed, and any necessary IRB and/or ethics committee approvals have been obtained.

Yes

I confirm that all necessary patient/participant consent has been obtained and the appropriate institutional forms have been archived, and that any patient/participant/sample identifiers included were not known to anyone (e.g., hospital staff, patients or participants themselves) outside the research group so cannot be used to identify individuals.

Yes

I understand that all clinical trials and any other prospective interventional studies must be registered with an ICMJE-approved registry, such as ClinicalTrials.gov. I confirm that any such study reported in the manuscript has been registered and the trial registration ID is provided (note: if posting a prospective study registered retrospectively, please provide a statement in the trial ID field explaining why the study was not registered in advance).

Yes

I have followed all appropriate research reporting guidelines, such as any relevant EQUATOR Network research reporting checklist(s) and other pertinent material, if applicable.

Yes

Data Availability
