1 TARIFF AI-BASED CLINICAL DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEM AND PATIENT-SPECIFIC APPROACH. METHOD FOR DETERMINING CONTRAST AGENT DOSE TECHNICAL AREA 5 The invention is relevant to medical imaging techniques such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Contrast agents used in these methods optimize patient safety and image quality. In order to do this, numerous clinical parameters of the patient and current pharmacological guidelines are combined. Information Access-Assisted Production (Retrieval-Augmented Generation—RAG) that operates in real-time Clinical 10 based on a large language model supported by its architecture and retrained with domain-specific data. It includes the decision support system and the dosage determination method applied by this system. PREVIOUS TECHNIQUE In current technology, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and similar cross-sectional medical imaging techniques are used. The process of determining the dosage of contrast agent in imaging methods is generally used in clinical practice. empirical approaches that rely on fixed protocols or a limited number of clinical parameters This is carried out based on the principle that the contrast agent dose is determined solely on the patient's needs. The calculation is based on total body weight, and the injection is administered according to this calculation. This is how it is carried out. In some cases, the patient's gender is also used as an additional parameter, 20 However, a multi-parameter assessment that goes beyond this is not being carried out. Currently... approaches, glomerular filtration rate, body composition, lean body mass, blood values, factors affecting contrast agent pharmacokinetics, such as the patient's age, comorbidity status, and medical history. It omits critical clinical parameters that directly affect patient safety from being evaluated. This situation presents a significant technical problem in clinical practice: The patient's kidney 25 When functions, body composition, and other individual characteristics are not taken into account, some acute contrast-induced complications due to excessively high doses administered to patients The risk of kidney damage increases; in some patients, insufficient dose leads to decreased image quality. and the need arises to repeat the imaging procedure as its diagnostic value decreases. Each Both situations threaten patient safety, leading to unnecessary radiation exposure and additional costs. 30 This leads to... In addition, international clinical guidelines and current practices are followed in the application of contrast agents. Dynamic integration with pharmacological data is not possible. Clinical decision-making process Because it relies largely on the physician's personal experience or limited reference tables, the patient It is not possible to evaluate fundamental differences in a standardized and systematic way, This also leads to high variation and unpredictable results in clinical applications. 35 2 Artificial intelligence has been developed for determining the contrast agent dosage in the current technique, and When machine learning-based approaches are examined, it is observed that these systems are mostly single-model and It appears that these systems consist of single-layer architectures. These systems are used solely for image analysis or It can generate predictions based on a limited number of patient data; clinical guidelines and pharmacological information... It does not offer a multi-layered decision-making mechanism that processes patient parameters together. This 5 A significant portion of these types of models are able to explain the clinical rationale behind the results they produce. It lacks explainability in artificial intelligence systems used in healthcare. Although it is a critical requirement, models in current technology generally have a black box character. It displays and determines which clinical parameters or sources the recommended dose is based on. It is unable to present the generated data to the user. This situation affects physicians' 10% access to system outputs. This reduces confidence and limits the integration of such systems into clinical routine. The current Another significant shortcoming in the technology is the inability to integrate semantic information retrieval with generative modeling processes. It should not be used. Clinical guidelines, drug package inserts, current publications, and patient scenarios are examples of such sources. The failure to directly integrate rich information resources into the decision-making model, and the model outputs... This makes it difficult to rely on current and reliable information. Especially for large language models. 15 where used, the model's training data does not include or is not adequately represented The risk of producing inaccurate, unfounded, or clinically inconsistent results for clinical situations. This is known as the problem of hallucinations, and this risk is not adequately addressed in current techniques. Given these shortcomings, the current technique aims to optimize contrast agent dosage on a patient-by-patient basis. enabling dynamically updated clinical guidelines and explainable decisions. 20 It is far from offering a system that can produce and strengthen the problem of hallucinations. This Therefore, dose optimization improves patient safety in medical imaging procedures. A new technical solution is needed that personalizes and standardizes clinical decision-making processes.

Furthermore, the contrast-enhanced image is also produced using the same model. This makes it possible to convert the image to a non-contrast image. Thus, contrast The aim is to avoid adverse effects associated with substance injection.

It is processed in this way, and also involves calculations such as lean body mass and glomerular filtration rate. Contrast agent dosage is determined, and this decision can be explained using a large language model. is being introduced.

This provides. In the present invention, however, it completely eliminates the use of contrast medium. Instead, the dosage of contrast agent to be used should be optimized on a patient-by-patient basis. This is the aim.
