Abstract
This study explores the utility of the large language models (LLMs), specifically ChatGPT and Google Bard, in predicting neuropathologic diagnoses from clinical summaries. A total of 25 cases of neurodegenerative disorders presented at Mayo Clinic brain bank Clinico-Pathological Conferences were analyzed. The LLMs provided multiple pathologic diagnoses and their rationales, which were compared with the final clinical diagnoses made by physicians. ChatGPT-3.5, ChatGPT-4, and Google Bard correctly made primary diagnoses in 32%, 52%, and 40% of cases, respectively, while correct diagnoses were included in 76%, 84%, and 76% of cases, respectively. These findings highlight the potential of artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT in neuropathology, suggesting they may facilitate more comprehensive discussions in clinicopathological conferences.
