AI coaches doctors on cancer risk talks

This pilot study tests whether giving doctors and patients feedback from AI analysis of their consultations can improve how prostate cancer risks are communicated. Men newly diagnosed with localized prostate cancer will have their initial treatment consultations recorded. An AI system will extract key statements about prognosis, life expectancy, and side effects, and both patients and doctors will receive feedback within two weeks. The goal is to see if this feedback reduces patient uncertainty and improves risk understanding, potentially leading to better shared decision-making.
