Hong Kong University to Test four genAI Models in Hospitals

Hong Kong University of Science and Technology has recently developed four large language models, including models for cancer detection and an AI chatbot for physicians.In a statement to Healthcare IT News, the HKUST research team further shared details and findings from developing these models. Their breast cancer AI model has achieved 87% diagnostic accuracy in multicentre tests. MOME can also predict patients’ responses to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The medical chatbot MedMR, which answers questions, generates medical reports, and provides initial diagnoses based on medical images, has achieved 93% accuracy in identifying tumours and non-tumours using the publicly available PCam200 dataset from Patch Camelyon.

Early this year, the Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics in Hong Kong, a research centre under one of China's national research institutes, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, also introduced a doctors' chatbot called CARES. Built based on Meta's Llama 2 LLM, the chatbot is being tested in seven unnamed hospitals in Beijing. Other Asian health systems have been working on similar generative AI projects. In October, the Singaporean Ministry of Health announced a new investment to support a national project that will roll out genAI in the public health system by end-2025.
