AI-Generated Summaries Improve Patient Understanding of Radiology Reports

New research from the Sohn Lab, recently featured by RSNA News, found that large language model-generated, patient-friendly summaries of lung cancer screening CT reports improved comprehension, reduced anxiety, and increased participants’ willingness to wait for a scheduled follow-up appointment.

Rose Hills Summer Research Scholarship Awarded to Sohn Lab Undergraduate Researchers

This summer, our lab is pleased to announce undergraduate researchers Brian Kunzang and Justin Kim, both University of California, Berkeley students and members of our lab through the Undergraduate Research Apprentice Program (URAP), as recipients of the Rose Hills Scholarship.

Using LLMs to Improve Understanding of Cardiac MRI Image Quality

A recent publication from our lab in the Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging highlights how large language models can be used to improve understanding of cardiac MRI image quality before scans are even performed.

Advancing Patient-Centered Radiology Reporting with LLMs

A recent publication from our lab represents an important contribution to patient-centered radiology AI and highlights a central direction of the lab.

Demonstrating the Reliability of Reasoning-Capable Large Language Models in Radiologic Numerical Tasks

In our latest open-access study, “Large Language Models in Radiologic Numerical Tasks: A Thorough Evaluation and Error Analysis,” the Sohn Lab demonstrates that modern reasoning-capable large language models can reliably perform clinically meaningful numerical tasks directly from radiology reports.

Newly Accepted Study: Understanding Patient and Physiologic Factors Influencing Image Quality in 0.55T Lung MRI

We are pleased to share that a recent study from the Sohn Lab has been accepted for publication in Radiology Advances. This work reflects our lab’s ongoing interest in better understanding how emerging MRI technologies perform in real clinical settings. As mid field MRI at 0.55T gains attention for…
