Large language models for turning structured dental radiology data into narrative reports

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study evaluates the use of large language models to generate narrative dental radiology reports from structured input such as charts or diagrams. It focuses on the quality, clarity, and clinical usefulness of the reports, comparing model-generated outputs with traditionally prepared reports. The project examines how prompt design and model settings influence report quality, aiming to identify configurations that improve completeness and factual accuracy without interpreting images or making diagnoses. Data are restricted to structured radiology findings and do not involve autonomous diagnostic decisions. The research will assess reliability, terminology, readability, and alignment with source data across multiple configurations.
