Outline

To address the problem that manual completion of the "Impression" section in radiology reports is a major cause of radiologist burnout, the authors propose a coarse-to-fine framework that automatically generates and personalizes impressions from clinical findings, leveraging open-source large-scale language models (LLMs). The system first generates a draft impression, then refines it using machine learning and human-feedback-driven reinforcement learning (RLHF) to ensure factual accuracy and adapt it to the individual radiologist's style. The LLaMA and Mistral models were fine-tuned using a large-scale report dataset from the University of Chicago Medicine. This approach is designed to significantly reduce administrative workload and improve reporting efficiency while maintaining high standards of clinical accuracy.

Contributing to reducing burnout among radiologists.
Improve reporting efficiency.
Create personalized impressions tailored to the style of each individual radiologist.
Presenting an automated report generation framework using LLM.
Limitations:
Specific Limitations is not provided (limitation of the paper abstract).
Further research is needed on the accuracy and stability of RLHF.
