Large language models' performance in answering common patient questions about colonoscopy: an expert-based evaluation
Background This study aimed to compare the performance of two large language models (LLMs) the ChatGPT-4 and the Google Bard in delivering medical information about colonoscopy. It also sought to evaluate the models' responses to common patient and caregiver questions in terms of accuracy, applicability, comprehensiveness, and communication quality, as assessed by experts using a rubric-based method. Methods This comparative, expert-based observational study analyzed the responses of both models to 11 colonoscop…
Gastroenterologists rated ChatGPT-4's Turkish-language answers to common colonoscopy questions highly, with over 70% of ratings at 4 or above in every domain, outperforming Google Bard.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1413 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
