TL;DR

Doctorina's advantage over physicians extended from primary-diagnosis selection to higher-rated diagnostic workup and initial treatment after adaptive consultation and was extended from primary-diagnosis selection to higher-rated diagnostic workup and initial treatment after adaptive consultation.

Abstract

Clinical AI evaluation should encompass diagnosis and management after adaptive information gathering. We compared Doctorina, eight physicians and four standalone frontier language models in 150 synthetic Polish-language primary-care consultations. Doctorina achieved 82.0% Top-1 concordance versus 57.0% for physicians (difference, 25.0 percentage points; 95% confidence interval, 17.7-32.7) and 97.3% versus 85.0% primary-or-reference-differential concordance. Across 149 case pairs, normalized workup and treatment scores were 89.4 versus 66.9 and 83.7 versus 61.2. Doctorina had the highest diagnostic point estimates among all six groups; Kimi K3 ranked next, while Claude Opus 5 led the closely spaced management estimates of Opus, Doctorina and Kimi. A second Doctorina execution reproduced the advantages over physicians across all outcomes. Doctorina's advantage over physicians therefore extended from primary-diagnosis selection to higher-rated diagnostic workup and initial treatment after adaptive consultation.

Benchmarking ten frontier large language models on 1,477 board style multiple choice questions in hematology

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used by clinicians and patients for medical queries, yet their accuracy and safety at the specialist level in hematology remain insufficiently characterised. We benchmarked ten frontier proprietary and open-weight LLMs across two generations on 1,477 board-style hematology...

Discrepancy between medical knowledge and clinical reasoning: evaluating large language models in prenatal diagnosis

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive performance across various medical examinations; however, their competency in subspecialty clinical reasoning, particularly in prenatal diagnosis, remains poorly characterized. A cross-sectional comparative study was conducted by using 125 questions...

Large Language Models and Medical AI Systems for Healthcare Diagnosis: A Systematic Review

Although promising, LLM-based systems are not yet reliable enough for autonomous medical diagnosis, and multiple recommendations for future research are contained to ensure a high level of safety, transparency, and clinical applicability for LLMs and other AI/ML-related technologies and devices.
