Literature review process for LLMs in oncology. Flowchart depicting the article selection process for our review on LLMs in oncology. Initially, 1167 articles were identified through a database search. Each article was manually assessed by title and abstract for relevance to the review scope. Articles were classified as “aligned with scope of the review”, “not aligned with scope of the review”, or “uncertain”. For articles marked as “uncertain”, a full-text review was conducted to determine their relevance to our study. Finally, our process led us to a final selection of 59 relevant articles aligned with the scope of the review. LLMs = large language models.
