A novel framework called ClinicSum is introduced to automatically generate clinical summaries from patient-doctor conversations. The architecture consists of two modules: retrieval-based filtering and inference, powered by fine-tuned Pre-trained Language Models (PLMs). A training dataset of 1,473 conversations-summaries pairs was created using publicly available datasets FigShare and MTS-Dialog, validated by Subject Matter Experts (SMEs). ClinicSum outperforms state-of-the-art PLMs in automatic evaluations and receives high preference from SMEs in human assessment.

ClinicSum is a new way to make summaries of doctor-patient conversations. It uses special computer models to help doctors write shorter, more important reports about what happened during their meetings with patients. The model was trained on lots of real conversations between doctors and patients, and it’s better than other similar models at getting the most important information right.
