VeriDx: Earning the Right to Diagnose with Disease-Centric Verification

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.14018v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A correct diagnosis can still be reached for the wrong reasons. In clinical reasoning, every disease hypothesis creates obligations: key evidence must be checked, alternatives must be ruled out, contradictions must be resolved, useful tests must be considered, and closure must be justified. Current evaluations of medical LLMs mostly focus on final answers, local steps, or isolated facts, and therefore miss these hypothesis-induced commitments. We introduce \textbf{VeriDx}, a disease-centric verification framework that links free-form diagnostic reasoning to structured disease profiles. VeriDx tracks whether each hypothesis is satisfied, unresolved, or violated its clinical obligations, exposing failures such as missing critical tests, unres
