DiagnosisArena: Benchmarking Diagnostic Reasoning for Large Language Models

T0 review · reviewed 2026-08-07 · deepseek-v4-flash

Pith's one-line read DiagnosisArena, a 1,113-case benchmark from top journals, shows state-of-the-art LLMs achieve at most 51% top-1 diagnostic accuracy, far below clinical-level competence.

The pith

A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.

The reading

DiagnosisArena is a test for how well large language models can diagnose diseases from real patient cases. The authors collected 4,175 case reports from journals such as the New England Journal of Medicine and the Lancet, then stripped out treatment plans and follow-up details so the models see only the information a doctor would have before making a diagnosis. After several rounds of filtering, including checks by other AI models and by board-certified physicians, 1,113 cases remained. Each case includes the patient's history, physical examination findings, and diagnostic test results, with the published final diagnosis as the answer key.

The authors asked many AI models to list their top five diagnoses for each case. Even the strongest model tested, OpenAI's o3, got the exact diagnosis right only about 51% of the time. Older models such as o1 scored 31% and DeepSeek-R1 scored 18%. When the same cases were turned into multiple-choice questions, model scores jumped sharply; o1 rose from 31% to about 62%. This gap suggests that selecting an answer from a list is much easier than generating the correct diagnosis from scratch.

The benchmark is meant to be a more realistic measure of clinical reasoning than tests based on medical licensing exam questions. However, the paper does not report how well human doctors perform on the same cases, and it relies on another AI model to judge whether an answer is correct. Those are important caveats for interpreting the headline numbers.

Extended reading notes

Core claim

The paper's central claim is that current LLMs, including advanced reasoning models, are far from professional-level diagnostic competence on realistic clinical cases: 'even the most advanced reasoning models, o3, o1, and DeepSeek-R1, achieve only 51.12%, 31.09%, and 17.79% accuracy, respectively' on DiagnosisArena, and 'multiple-choice formats inherently reduce task difficulty and thus fail to accurately reflect the models' true abilities' (Section 4.3). If correct, no current model can be relied upon for autonomous diagnosis on cases with sufficient clinical information to reach a diagnosis.

Load-bearing premise

The GPT-4o judge used to score open-ended outputs reliably reproduces human expert judgments of 'identical', 'relevant', and 'irrelevant' diagnoses. The paper does not validate this judge against human ratings, yet every reported top-1 and top-5 accuracy in Figure 3 depends on it. If the judge is miscalibrated, the headline numbers could be materially wrong. This assumption enters in Section 4.2 (GPT-4o Evaluation Prompt) and the results in Section 4.3.

Editorial analysis

A structured set of objections, weighed in public.

Desk editor's note, referee report, and a circularity audit.

Assumptions & free parameters 3 free parameters · 4 assumptions · 0 invented entities

The benchmark claim rests on hand-set thresholds rather than fitted mathematical parameters. The free parameters shape which cases enter the benchmark and how answers are scored. The GPT-4o judge assumption is the most consequential for the headline accuracies.

free parameters (3)
  • top_k_outputs = 5
    The evaluation prompt asks models to list the top 5 most likely diagnoses; top-1 and top-5 accuracy are defined relative to this hand-set number (Section 4.2, DiagnosisArena Evaluation Prompt).
  • iterative_filtering_attempts = 2 attempts per model
    Cases are excluded as 'too simple' if any of Baichuan-M1, DeepSeek-V3, or GPT-4o produces a correct answer in any of two sampling attempts (Section 3.2, Iterative Filtering).
  • consensus_attempts_for_deepseek_r1 = 8 attempts
    Cases are excluded if DeepSeek-R1 cannot reach consensus on a relevant diagnosis in eight sampling attempts (Section 3.2, Expert-AI Collaborative Verification).
assumptions (4)
  • domain assumption The published final diagnosis in each case report is correct and can serve as a single ground truth.
    Section 3.2 treats the 'Final Diagnosis' field as the answer key for all evaluation; any errors or ambiguity in the original case report transfer into the benchmark.
  • domain assumption Case reports from 10 selected top-tier medical journals are representative of challenging real-world diagnostic scenarios.
    Section 3.2 Data Collection asserts that high-impact case reports present challenging, information-dense cases, but representativeness is not demonstrated.
  • ad hoc to paper A case solved by any of Baichuan-M1, DeepSeek-V3, or GPT-4o in two attempts is too simple to test reasoning.
    Section 3.2 Iterative Filtering uses this rule to remove cases, assuming that success by these models implies knowledge recall rather than reasoning.
  • ad hoc to paper GPT-4o scoring is equivalent to expert human scoring for the identical/relevant/irrelevant taxonomy.
    Section 4.2 applies GPT-4o as judge without reporting inter-rater agreement with human physicians.

The emergence of groundbreaking large language models capable of performing complex reasoning tasks holds significant promise for addressing various scientific challenges, including those arising in complex clinical scenarios. To enable their safe and effective deployment in real-world healthcare settings, it is urgently necessary to benchmark the diagnostic capabilities of current models systematically. Given the limitations of existing medical benchmarks in evaluating advanced diagnostic reasoning, we present DiagnosisArena, a comprehensive and challenging benchmark designed to rigorously assess professional-level diagnostic competence. DiagnosisArena consists of 1,113 pairs of segmented patient cases and corresponding diagnoses, spanning 28 medical specialties, deriving from clinical case reports published in 10 top-tier medical journals. The benchmark is developed through a meticulous construction pipeline, involving multiple rounds of screening and review by both AI systems and human experts, with thorough checks conducted to prevent data leakage. Our study reveals that even the most advanced reasoning models, o3, o1, and DeepSeek-R1, achieve only 51.12%, 31.09%, and 17.79% accuracy, respectively. This finding highlights a significant generalization bottleneck in current large language models when faced with clinical diagnostic reasoning challenges. Through DiagnosisArena, we aim to drive further advancements in AI's diagnostic reasoning capabilities, enabling more effective solutions for real-world clinical diagnostic challenges. We provide the benchmark and evaluation tools for further research and development https://github.com/SPIRAL-MED/DiagnosisArena.
