Description
This volume examines how large language models (LLMs) are being adopted across clinical and healthcare-administration settings, and the ethical, governance, and trust questions that adoption raises. Contributors from medicine, informatics, and health policy bring together current thinking on where LLMs genuinely help clinical decision-making and communication, and where their limitations demand caution.
Key Features
Cross-disciplinary treatment of LLMs in healthcare, spanning technical capability, clinical workflow integration, and regulatory/ethical oversight. Structured around three throughlines: ethics, trust, and real-world clinical application.
Coverage
Large language models in clinical decision support; patient communication and documentation; data privacy and governance; bias and fairness in medical AI; frameworks for evaluating clinical trustworthiness of generative AI tools.
About the Authors
Edited by Fernando Ortiz-Rodríguez, with contributions from researchers and practitioners working at the intersection of artificial intelligence, clinical informatics, and healthcare ethics.
Table of Contents
Organized across sections addressing the technical foundations of medical LLMs, their clinical applications, and the ethical/regulatory frameworks needed to deploy them responsibly. Full chapter listing available on request.
Why buy this book?
For librarians, clinicians, and researchers building a reference collection on generative AI in medicine, this is one of the few academic titles focused specifically on the ethics and trust dimensions of medical LLM deployment, rather than technical capability alone.
