Comparative Analysis of ChatGPT and Human Decision-Making in Thyroid and Neck Swellings: A Case-Based Study
IntroductionThis study aimed to evaluate the performance of Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer (ChatGPT), an AI-powered chatbot, in providing treatment recommendations for head and neck nodules.
MethodsTen diverse cases were examined, including individuals with varying ages and conditions such as thyroid nodules and suspicious neck lesions. The decisions made by ChatGPT were compared to those of physicians. Data were collected from the Smart Health Tower on May 2, 2023.
ResultsAnalysis of the cases revealed that ChatGPT provided recommendations that aligned with physicians' decisions in seven cases. However, disparities were observed in three cases (N5, N8, N10). Discrepancies were influenced by factors such as nodule size, thyroid function, and the presence of associated symptoms.
ConclusionThe findings suggest that ChatGPT can assist healthcare professionals in formulating individualized diagnoses and treatment strategies for head and neck nodules. However, further research is needed to validate the performance of ChatGPT in larger patient populations and assess its long-term impact on patient outcomes.
