A Reasoning Pathway Explanation Framework for Clinical AI: Methods and Evaluation

2026-04-16

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> <bold>Objective</bold> : When AI predicts acute myocardial infarction, existing explanation methods identify which features mattered (e.g., elevated troponin) but not how risk factors lead to the diagnosis through biological mechanisms. We developed a framework that generates reasoning pathways—clinically grounded chains linking risk factors, pathophysiology, and evidence—to address...
