Researchers have developed ConfTriage, a novel framework that uses large language models (LLMs) to predict pulmonary nodule malignancy. This system leverages natural language descriptions of nodule attributes, combined with confidence calibration, to triage cases. For low-confidence predictions, ConfTriage defers to specialist deep learning models. Experiments on the LIDC-IDRI dataset demonstrated that ConfTriage achieved an F1 score of 88.22% and an AUC of 0.92, successfully resolving a significant portion of cases through zero-shot LLM inference alone.
