Researchers release ChestPheNoT for auditable radiology report analysis

Researchers introduced ChestPheNoT, a compact 0.5–3B language model designed to extract structured medical findings, status labels (present/absent/uncertain), and verbatim evidence spans from radiology reports. The model avoids external APIs by running locally, addressing concerns about data leaving institutional networks. It uses hybrid silver supervision (CheXbert + 72B models) and GRPO…

Key points

  • ChestPheNoT extracts findings, status labels, and evidence spans from radiology reports locally, not via APIs
  • Outperforms CheXbert on cross-institution detection by +2.0 F1 and matches larger models on detection tasks
  • Achieves 99% evidence span locatability and 47.5 auditable-F1, surpassing Qwen2.5-7B by 7.6 points

ChestPheNoT achieves 99% evidence span locatability and an auditable-F1 of 47.5, surpassing Qwen2.5-7B by 7.6 points. The team claims it enables deployable, explainable radiology analytics without relying on cloud-based inference. Code and prompts will be open-sourced on GitHub.
