A friend of mine had gotten an imaging test done recently, and had to wait 7 days to have her doctor review it. Meanwhile, she got the report and was paralyzed with worry by some of the words (like high risk for ____, etc).
I feel like this is an area where AI/LLMs/whatever can actually help triage test results to tell doctors "hey you really should look at this test result first, it looks concerning" - this would happen in a way that you can't do with other bloodwork (which returns numbers on a scale).
Most radiology reports are just written words, so LLMs could potentially use that to triage and help alert the care provider to prioritize it, so patients aren't sitting there worried for days on end until a doc analyzes it.
