Summary

This study tested whether using artificial intelligence to simplify ultrasound reports helps patients or their guardians better understand the results. Over 660 participants were shown either a standard medical report or an AI-generated plain-language version reviewed by experts. The goal was to see if the simplified version improved comprehension and reading ease without changing any medical care.
