Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been advancing rapidly and with the advent of large language models (LLMs) in late 2022, numerous opportunities have emerged for adopting this technology across various domains, including medicine. These innovations hold immense potential to revolutionize and modernize medical education. Our research project leverages large language models to enhance medical education and address workflow challenges through the development of MediTools - AI Medical Education. This prototype application focuses on developing interactive tools that simulate real-life clinical scenarios, provide access to medical literature, and keep users updated with the latest medical news. Our first tool is a dermatology case simulation tool that uses real patient images depicting various dermatological conditions and enables interaction with LLMs acting as virtual patients. This platform allows users to practice their diagnostic skills and enhance their clinical decision-making abilities. The application also features two additional tools: an AI-enhanced PubMed tool for engaging with LLMs to gain deeper insights into research papers, and a Google News tool that offers LLM generated summaries of articles for various medical specialties. A comprehensive survey has been conducted among medical professionals and students to gather initial feedback on the effectiveness and user satisfaction of MediTools, providing insights for further development and refinement of the application. This research demonstrates the potential of AI-driven tools in transforming and revolutionizing medical education, offering a scalable and interactive platform for continuous learning and skill development.
