Evaluating Eight Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) Large Language Models’ Responses to Clinical Questions: A Comparative Study

2026-08-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Large language models (LLMs) that use retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) are increasingly used to answer clinical questions, although the evaluation of these systems remains limited. Building on previous studies conducted by our team, this case report aimed to improve upon this knowledge gap by applying a reusable methodology to compare the performance of eight LLMs that utilize RAG techniqu...
