An Evidence-Driven Multi-Agent Compound AI System for Head and Neck Proton Radiotherapy Planning

The paper presents an evidence-driven, multi-agent AI system for head and neck proton radiotherapy planning. It combines a DRL-based planning agent that generates multiple treatment plans with an LLM-based conversational agent that refines the chosen plan through natural language interactions. The system, trained on 21 patients, improves instruction-following and domain-specific reasoning, yielding more clinically appropriate trade-offs in patient-specific plan refinement.

RadOnc-Agent: An LLM-Orchestrated Framework for AI Workflows Across the Radiotherapy Care Pathway

RadOnc-Agent is an AI framework that organizes radiotherapy into four clinical phases and offers 26 callable functions via a conversational interface. A large‑language‑model controller maps clinical intent to schema‑constrained calls, maintains patient and workflow context, and routes requests to specialist services. In evaluations, the system achieved high accuracy in single‑function calls (98.79%) and cross‑stage workflow completions (96.50% scripted, 96.67% real‑patient), demonstrating technical feasibility of LLM‑orchestrated coordination across heterogeneous radiotherapy capabilities.

ClinAgent: A ReAct-Based Agent for Conversational Access to Clinical Trial Information

ClinAgent is a conversational system that uses a ReAct-based LLM agent to retrieve and synthesize clinical trial information from multiple sources such as ClinicalTrials.gov, PubMed, and a local dataset. The agent iteratively reasons over user queries, selects appropriate tools, and refines its actions to provide grounded, up-to-date responses in natural language across multi-turn interactions. Evaluation across three phases shows that DeepSeek (thinking mode) excels in planning quality while Gemini 3.0 Flash delivers the highest overall performance and expert ratings, demonstrating the promise of agentic AI for improving clinical trial data access.

MACD: Multi-Agent Clinical Diagnosis with Self-Learned Knowledge for LLM

The paper introduces MACD, a Multi-Agent Clinical Diagnosis framework that enables large language models to self‑learn clinical knowledge through a multi‑agent pipeline of summarization, refinement, and application. MACD is extended into a human‑AI collaborative workflow where multiple diagnostician agents consult iteratively, guided by a judge agent and human oversight. Evaluation on the MIMIC‑MACD cohort shows significant gains in diagnostic accuracy—an average 11.6 percentage‑point improvement over authoritative knowledge for open‑weight LLMs and an 18.3‑percentage‑point boost over physician‑only diagnosis in text‑only vignettes.

Latent Decision Flow Rewards for Clinical Guideline Reasoning

The paper introduces GUIDER, a method that jointly trains a decision flow controller and a reasoning policy to improve clinical guideline reasoning. GUIDER generates multiple plausible decision flows from guideline supervision, computes process rewards across these flows, and gates them on answer correctness to address both path–answer gaps and path multiplicity. Experiments on MedGUIDE and out‑of‑domain benchmarks show that GUIDER outperforms existing reinforcement learning baselines, achieving higher weighted accuracy and guideline adherence.

STRIVE: Multi-Agent Structured Temporal Reasoning with Integrated Verification for Longitudinal Radiology Report Generation

STRIVE is a new framework for longitudinal radiology report generation that separates clinical reasoning into distinct Diagnosis, Attribute, and Temporal Change agents, each producing explicit evidence. The Temporal Change agent is refined with a Progression-Aware GRPO reward that differentiates direction-preserving errors from reversals. Verification occurs twice: a Consistency Gate aligns agent outputs before report generation, and a Validation Agent ensures the final report is supported by the aggregated evidence. On the Longitudinal-MIMIC dataset, STRIVE achieves superior clinical efficacy and more than doubles Longitudinal Change Concordance compared to the strongest baseline.
