Could ChatGPT pass the U.K. ’s radiology fellowship exam?
ChatGPT might be able to pass the current benchmark exam for qualification as a radiologist in the U.K., according to a group of musculoskeletal radiologists in Birmingham.
The group evaluated ChatGPT’s performance on a two-part test based on a bank of questions resembling the Fellowship of the Royal College of Radiologists (FRCR) exam. The large language model narrowly failed on part one true/false questions yet clearly passed part two single-best answer questions, noted lead author Sisith Ariyaratne, MD, of the Royal Orthopedic Hospital.
“GPT-4 performed at a reasonably high standard on the questions posed to it, w...

Artificial Intelligence Beats Doctors At Detecting Breast Cancer In Study
(CNN) — Google says it has developed an artificial intelligence system that can detect the presence of breast cancer more accurately than doctors.
A study that tested the accuracy of the system, which was developed through a collaboration between the tech giant and cancer researchers, was published Wednesday in the scientific journal Nature.
The program was trained to detect cancer using tens of thousands of mammograms from women in the United Kingdom and the United States, and early research shows it can produce more accurate detection than human radiologists.
According to the study, using the AI technology resulted...
