What does explainability in AI image interpretation really mean—and is it even what physicians want? Happy to share this collab in Nature @SciReports, led by @AndreaStoras & @kelkalot, re: explainability in GI endoscopy, w/ lessons for other fields https://t.co/RhlUk4O607

Re-upping this great 🧵 by @DrLaurenOR- very relevant to GI #AI Endoscopic diagnosis can involve translating probabilities into binary choices. Should that dichotomization be in hands of the doctor or software developer? Should CADx display "% certainty" or JUST a prediction?

This discussion was getting long, so I thought I'd lay out my thoughts on a common argument: should models produce probabilities or decisions? Ie 32% chance of cancer vs "do a biopsy". I favour the latter, because IMO it is both more useful and... more honest. IMO: 1/13

Thanks to @EricTopol for highlighting our latest study, which looks at some of the failure points in the clinical reasoning performance of reasoning models. What does this mean for the future of diagnostic decision support? And can LLMs actually medically reason? A 🧵⬇️

Nice demonstration of ‘push technique’ for deploying Axios inner flange in *small spaces*: ➡️ unlock BOTH catheter lock & stent deployment hub ➡️ stabilize stent deployment hub against chest with two fingers ➡️ push Axios forward, keeping stent deployment hub *fixed in position*

@tberzin I definitely think at least in this snapshot in time there’s a role for both. For trainees, open evidence can be dangerous if you’re using it as a primary source for decision making. It’s GREAT as a search engine for guidelines and very rarely hallucinates citations

Would love if some GI folks could post some examples of errors that crop up in Open Evidence. UpToDate also has *occasional* errors, out-of -date recs, and controversial opinions. Would be interesting (but difficult) to compare the two for accuracy across range of criteria.

@GI_Pearls I’ve picked up so many errors in open evidence that I stick to up to date to look things up. OI I use for patient information and literature searches mostly. Maybe things will get better

For medical trainees in any interventional or surgical field, I'm not sure there's a more important lesson than this one.

Et tu, OpenEvidence? AI's "jagged edge" problem in medicine: it may draft an incredibly nuanced clinical plan, while failing at counting the 'o’s in colonoscopy. LLMs don’t reason—they predict. Brilliant at times, brittle at others. Use with vigilance. @GaryMarcus @emollick
