With the continuous deepening of the concept of precision diagnosis and treatment for lung cancer, how to achieve higher efficiency and accuracy in the screening, diagnosis, and treatment pathways in clinical practice has become an important issue that urgently needs to be overcome. The current clinical difficulty lies in the fact that despite continuous advancements in imaging and molecular diagnostic technologies, there are still limitations in manual efficiency and subjective experience when it comes to massive data analysis and multi-scale feature extraction. Artificial intelligence (AI), especially algorithm systems based on deep learning, is an innovative technology capable of deeply empowering medical big data. This method utilizes algorithms such as convolutional neural networks, combined with radiomics, pathomics, and multi-modal data fusion analysis, demonstrating immense potential in early precise detection and benign-malignant differentiation of pulmonary nodules, digital pathological subtype recognition and non-invasive prediction of driver genes, precise 3D surgical planning and automatic delineation of radiotherapy target volumes, as well as dynamic risk warning during follow-up. This innovative technology provides a brand-new solution for realizing intelligent and individualized lung cancer diagnosis and treatment models. This consensus, based on the latest evidence from evidence-based medicine and combined with the development trends in the AI field and real-world clinical needs, was ultimately formed by gathering the consensus opinions of multidisciplinary experts in radiology, pathology, thoracic surgery, and other fields. The main content covers the application specifications of AI in the three core scenarios of lung cancer screening, diagnosis, and treatment, the technical standards for data collection and algorithm validation, as well as the ethical and regulatory challenges faced at the current stage. It aims to clarify the applicable boundaries of AI as a clinical auxiliary decision support tool, providing scientific guidance and standardized exploration directions for peers currently engaged in or planning to carry out AI-assisted clinical diagnosis, treatment, and translation of lung cancer.

Objective:To analyze the degree of intervertebral disc degeneration above and below the vertebral body in pilots with lumbar spondylolysis.Methods:The medical records of 66 pilots who underwent lumbar imaging examinations at the Air Force Medical Center between September 2011 and January 2025 were retrospectively analyzed. The degree of intervertebral disc degeneration was compared between 33 pilots with lumbar spondylolysis and another 33 age-matched pilots without spondylolysis. The spondylolysis group was divided into subgroups with/without spondylolisthesis and unilateral/bilateral subgroups. The degree of disc degeneration above and below the vertebral body was compared between these subgroups using the modified Pfirrmann grading system.Results:The modified Pfirrmann scores of the discs above and below the spondylolytic vertebral body in the spondylolysis group were significantly higher than those at the corresponding segments in the non-spondylolysis group ( Z=-2.39, -4.41, P=0.017,<0.001). In pilots with spondylolysis accompanied by spondylolisthesis, the modified Pfirrmann score of the disc below the slipped vertebral body was significantly higher than that in pilots without spondylolisthesis ( Z=-3.02, P=0.003). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the modified Pfirrmann score of the disc above the slipped vertebral body between pilots with and without spondylolisthesis ( P>0.05). No significant differences were observed in the modified Pfirrmann scores of the discs above and below the vertebral body between pilots with unilateral and bilateral spondylolysis (both P>0.05). Conclusions:Pilots with lumbar spondylolysis exhibit severe intervertebral disc degeneration above and below the affected vertebral body. Spondylolisthesis can continue to exacerbate degeneration in the disc inferior to the affected vertebra.

Objective:To assess the professional knowledge proficiency of mainstream large language models (LLMs) in medical laboratory education and to explore their potential as educational aids for medical laboratory technology students.Methods:A comprehensive evaluation was conducted using 400 authentic questions from the 2023 Chinese National Clinical Medical Laboratory Technician Qualification Examination. Five LLMs (Copilot, Grok, Yuanbao, Doubao, and Kimi) were tested through two-round interactions using zero-shot prompting and interaction-optimized prompting strategies. The accuracy of answers and the quality of generated content were evaluated. Performance disparities were analyzed using Cochran's Q test. Content quality was scored through the CLEAR framework (completeness, lack of false information, evidence-based reasoning, appropriateness, relevance).Results:In the first-round test, Doubao achieved the highest overall accuracy rate (375/400). The overall accuracy rates of Doubao and Yuanbao significantly outperformed Copilot and Kimi ( P<0.001). After the second-round interactive optimization, the accuracy rate of Kimi significantly improved ( P<0.05), whereas other LLMs showed slight improvements ( P>0.05). Doubao still had the highest overall accuracy rate (380/400). The overall accuracy rates of Doubao and Yuanbao significantly outperformed Copilot ( P<0.005). Evaluation based on the CLEAR framework revealed that Yuanbao, Doubao, and Kimi significantly outperformed foreign models in the dimensions of evidence-based reasoning ( P<0.003) and completeness ( P<0.05), demonstrating standardized citation of authoritative evidence and superior content quality. Conclusions:The tested LLMs possess extensive medical laboratory knowledge. The accuracy of their answers and the quality of the generated content can be improved through single-question input, specifying evidence requirements, and enabling advanced reasoning functions. Domestic LLMs are comparable to foreign LLMs in terms of accuracy, and have significant advantages in the dimensions of evidence-based reasoning and completeness. LLMs can serve as auxiliary tools for learning professional knowledge in medical laboratory technology.
