A multimodal approach for developing medical diagnoses with AI

MBZUAI ·

MBZUAI doctoral student Mai A. Shaaban and colleagues developed MedPromptX, a system that analyzes chest X-rays and patient data to aid lung disease diagnoses. MedPromptX uses multimodal large language models with visual grounding and few-shot prompting, trained on a new dataset of 6,000 patient records (MedPromptX-VQA) derived from MIMIC-IV and MIMIC-CXR. The system addresses the challenge of incomplete electronic health records by leveraging the knowledge embedded in large language models to interpret lab results. Why it matters: This research advances AI-driven medical diagnostics by integrating diverse data sources and addressing data gaps, potentially leading to quicker and more accurate diagnoses.
