Performance Evaluation of Open-Source Large Language Models for Assisting Pathology Report Writing in Japanese
The performance of large language models (LLMs) for supporting pathology report writing in Japanese remains unexplored. We evaluated seven open-source LLMs from three perspectives: (A) generation and information extraction of pathology diagnosis text following predefined formats, (B) correction of typographical errors in Japanese pathology reports, and (C) subjective evaluation of model-generated explanatory text by pathologists and clinicians. Thinking models and medical-specialized models showed advantages in structured reporting tasks that required reasoning and in typo correction. In contrast, preferences for explanatory outputs varied substantially across raters. Although the utility...
