Özet

Purpose ChatGPT has recently been the subject of many studies, and its responses to medical questions have been successful. We examined ChatGPT-4's evaluation of structured Ga-68 prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT reports of newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients. Methods Ga-68 PSMA PET/CT reports of 164 patients were entered to ChatGPT-4. ChatGPT-4 was asked to respond the following questions according to the PET/CT reports: 1-Has the cancer in the prostate extended to organs adjacent to the prostate? 2-Has the cancer in the prostate spread to neighboring lymph nodes? 3-Has the cancer in the prostate spread to lymph nodes in distant areas? 4-Has the cancer in the prostate spread to the bones? 5-Has the cancer in the prostate spread to other organs? ChatGPT-4's responses were scored on a Likert-type scale for clarity and accuracy. Results The mean scores for clarity were 4.93 +/- 0.32, 4.95 +/- 0.25, 4.96 +/- 0.19, 4.99 +/- 0.11, and 4.96 +/- 0.30, respectively. The mean scores for accuracy were 4.87 -/+ 0.61, 4.87 -/+ 0.62, 4.79 +/- 0.83, 4.96 +/- 0.25, and 4.93 +/- 0.45, respectively. Patients with distant lymphatic metastases had a lower mean accuracy score than those without (4.28 +/- 1.45 vs. 4.94 +/- 0.39; p < 0.001). ChatGPT-4's responses in 13 patients (8%) had the potential for harmful information. Conclusion ChatGPT-4 successfully interprets structured Ga-68 PSMA PET/CT reports of reports of newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients. However, it is unlikely that ChatGPT-4 evaluations will replace physicians' evaluations today, especially since it can produce fabricated information.
