Evaluating text and visual diagnostic capabilities of large language models on questions related to the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System Atlas 5th edition

Abstract

PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the performance of large language models (LLMs) and multimodal LLMs in interpreting the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) categories and providing clinical management recommendations for breast radiology in text-based and visual questions. METHODS: edition. In the second step, we assessed the performance of five multimodal LLMs (ChatGPT 4o, ChatGPT 4V, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, Claude 3 Opus, and Google Gemini 1.5 Pro) in assigning BI-RADS categories and providing clinical management recommendations on 100 breast ultrasound images. The comparison of correct answers and accuracy by question types was analyzed using McNemar's and chi-squared tests. Management scores were analyzed using the Kruskal- Wallis and Wilcoxon tests. RESULTS: < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Although LLMs such as Claude 3.5 Sonnet and ChatGPT 4o show promise in text-based BI-RADS assessments, their limitations in visual diagnostics suggest they should be used cautiously and under radiologists' supervision to avoid misdiagnoses. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: This study demonstrates that while LLMs exhibit strong capabilities in text-based BI-RADS assessments, their visual diagnostic abilities are currently limited, necessitating further development and cautious application in clinical practice.
