The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare has significantly enhanced diagnostic accuracy and clinical decision-making processes. This review examines four pivotal studies that highlight the integration of large language models (LLMs) and multimodal systems in medical diagnostics. BioBERT demonstrates the efficacy of domain-specific pretraining on biomedical texts, improving performance in tasks such as named entity recognition, relation extraction, and question answering. Med-PaLM, a large-scale language model tailored for clinical question answering, leverages instruction prompt tuning to enhance accuracy and reduce harmful outputs, validated through the MultiMedQA benchmark. DR.KNOWS integrates medical knowledge graphs with LLMs, enhancing diagnostic reasoning and interpretability by grounding model predictions in structured medical knowledge. Medical Multimodal Foundation Models (MMFMs) combine textual and imaging data to improve tasks like segmentation, lesion detection, and automated report generation. These studies demonstrate the importance of domain adaptation, structured knowledge integration, and multimodal data fusion in developing robust and interpretable AI-driven diagnostic tools.
