Detecting Hallucinations in AI Radiology
Fine-grained approach for safer AI-generated medical reports
ReXTrust introduces a novel framework that precisely identifies false statements in AI-generated radiology reports by analyzing hidden states in vision-language models.
Key Innovations:
- Produces finding-level hallucination risk scores for precise error detection
- Leverages sequences of hidden states from vision-language models
- Evaluated on the MIMIC-CXR dataset with promising results
- Addresses critical patient safety concerns in medical AI applications
Why This Matters: As radiology increasingly adopts AI-generated reports, robust hallucination detection is essential for maintaining diagnostic accuracy and patient safety. ReXTrust offers a targeted approach to identify potentially harmful errors before they impact clinical decisions.
