Overview

Systematic review assesses reliability and accessibility of LLMs in answering cancer-related patient questions, suggesting improvement avenues.

Key Points

  • Large language models show promise in providing reliable information, with accuracy averaging around 79.0%.
  • Accessibility scores were concerning, particularly actionability at a median of 40.0%, indicating a need for improvement.
  • The systematic review included thirty-six studies that used various measures to evaluate LLM responses in oncology contexts.
  • Training with physician involvement may enhance the performance of large language models in healthcare communication.
