Article Abstract
Large language models (LLMs) have gained significant attention in the medical domain for their human-level capabilities, leading to increased efforts to explore their potential in various healthcare applications. However, despite such a promising future, there are multiple challenges and obstacles that remain for their real-world uses in practical settings. This work discusses key challenges for LLMs in medical applications from four unique aspects: operational vulnerabilities, ethical and social considerations, performance and assessment difficulties, and legal and regulatory compliance. Addressing these challenges is crucial for leveraging LLMs to their full potential and ensuring their responsible integration into healthcare.

Background: Recent studies suggest that large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT are useful tools for medical students or residents when preparing for examinations. These studies, especially those conducted with multiple-choice questions, emphasize that the level of knowledge and response consistency of the LLMs are generally acceptable; however, further optimization is needed in areas such as case discussion, interpretation, and language proficiency. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the performance of six distinct LLMs for Turkish and English neurosurgery multiple-choice questions and assess their accuracy and consistency in a specialized medical context.

Objectives: Recommendations regarding the use of third-trimester ultrasound lack universal consensus. Yet, there is evidence which supports its value in assessing fetal growth, fetal well-being, and a number of pregnancy-related complications. This literature review evaluates the available scientific evidence regarding its applications, usefulness, and the timing of the third-trimester scan in a low-risk population.

Purpose: Large language models (LLMs) can assist patients who seek medical knowledge online to guide their own glaucoma care. Understanding the differences in LLM performance on glaucoma-related questions can inform patients about the best resources to obtain relevant information.
Methods: This cross-sectional study evaluated the accuracy, comprehensiveness, quality, and readability of LLM-generated responses to glaucoma inquiries.

Background: Conventional automated writing evaluation systems typically provide insufficient support for students with special needs, especially in tonal language acquisition such as Chinese, primarily because of rigid feedback mechanisms and limited customisation.
Objective: This research develops context-aware Hierarchical AI Tutor for Writing Enhancement(CHATWELL), an intelligent tutoring platform that incorporates optimised large language models to deliver instantaneous, customised, and multi-dimensional writing assistance for Chinese language learners, with special consideration for those with cognitive learning barriers.
Methods: CHATWELL employs a hierarchical AI framework with a four-tier feedback mechanism designed to accommodate diverse learning needs.
