radiology-translation

radiology-translation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from huang-sir1/radiology-skills. It costs 165 tokens per session (1,401 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for moving an imaging model from testing on past medical scans toward use in clinical practice. It explains how to define the clinical task, compare radiologists with and without AI, choose action-based thresholds, and gather prospective evidence.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan reader studies, compare radiologist and AI decisions, connect model thresholds to clinical actions, and design prospective or real-world validation.
Why use it?
Good performance on historical data does not by itself show that a model helps patients or clinicians. This guide focuses on measuring real clinical usefulness and the costs of mistakes.

About the project

radiology-skills is a collection of Codex skills for medical-imaging research, covering radiomics, deep learning, imaging genomics, multimodal studies, statistics, validation, and scientific publishing. It is intended for researchers who design, analyze, write, and submit medical-imaging AI studies. The catalogue entries are its modular research workflows and specialist advisory skills.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

radiology-translation scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 13d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Clinical Translation, Reader Studies & Prospective Validation

Use this skill to turn "the model has good retrospective performance" into "the model helps in practice." This is the step top journals reward and reviewers demand before any clinical claim: a defined use scenario, a reader study, thresholds tied to actions, and prospective/real-world evidence.

Core stance

  • Retrospective AUC ≠ clinical utility. Discrimination on a curated set says nothing about patient benefit. The claim must be earned with utility evidence, not asserted.
  • Define the use scenario first. Screening, triage, diagnosis, staging, prognosis, treatment-response, surveillance, or MDT support — each fixes the output, the threshold, and the cost of errors.
  • Reader studies are designed, not improvised. MRMC with washout, randomised order, radiologist-alone vs radiologist+AI, reader experience reported, and the right statistic (→ radiology-stats).
  • Thresholds map to actions. Every operating point implies a clinical action and a cost of false positives/negatives; net-benefit / decision-curve quantifies it.
  • Prospective beats retrospective; real-world beats curated. Plan temporal/prospective/ real-world validation and the PACS/RIS workflow position and constraints.
  • Integrity & safety. Plan only; never claim deployment readiness without the evidence, and never give clinical or diagnostic recommendations for individual patients.

When to use

  • "Design a reader study / clinician+AI gain study." / "帮我设计读者研究 / 医生+AI 增益研究。"
  • "What does it take to claim clinical utility / move toward deployment?"
  • "Plan a prospective / real-world validation." / "前瞻性验证、真实世界验证怎么设计?"
  • "Map my model's threshold to a clinical action / net benefit."
  • "Where does this sit in the PACS/RIS workflow?"

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
