ASTAR: Automated induction of STAndardized radiology Reporting templates from large-scale clinical free-text corpora

Read the original on arXiv AI →

ASTAR is an LLM-based framework that automatically generates standardized radiology reporting templates from large-scale clinical free-text corpora, eliminating the manual, expert-driven template construction process. In experiments on 4,215 fetal brain MRI reports from multiple centers, ASTAR‑induced templates outperformed two expert‑curated templates in template coverage, information fidelity, diagnostic fidelity, and expert‑rated usability. The approach reduces template development time from weeks of committee deliberation to hours of automated processing.

Reporting Practice Matters: The Impact of Reference Choice on Chest X-ray Report Evaluation

The study examines how differences in radiologists’ reporting styles—such as terminology, shorthand, formatting, and detail—affect the evaluation of AI-generated chest X‑ray reports. By quantifying the sensitivity of common metrics to these variations, the authors show that changes in reference reports can shift model rankings. They introduce a taxonomy of reporting variations and a rewriting method, ReRef, that preserves clinical meaning while altering style, and release a validated dataset of paired reference reports to aid future research.
