Rethinking Medical LLM Hallucinations: A System-Level Survey

2026-03-23

Abstract excerpt

<p>Large language models (LLMs) demonstrate strong performance across biomedical and clinical tasks, yet their deployment in healthcare remains limited by hallucination. Prior research has often treated hallucination as an isolated model failure to be addressed through improved training, prompting, or retrieval. However, emerging theoretical and empirical evidence suggests that hallucination is instead a structura...
