RadQA (A Question Answering Dataset to Improve Comprehension of Radiology Reports)

Introduced by Sarvesh Soni et al. in RadQA: A Question Answering Dataset to Improve Comprehension of Radiology Reports1 Jun 2022 archive 2025-07-28

RadQA is a radiology question answering dataset with 3074 questions posed against radiology reports and annotated with their corresponding answer spans (resulting in a total of 6148 question-answer evidence pairs) by physicians. The questions are manually created using the clinical referral section of the reports that take into account the actual information needs of ordering physicians and eliminate bias from seeing the answer context (and, further, organically create unanswerable questions). The answer spans are marked within the Findings and Impressions sections of a report. The dataset aims to satisfy the complex clinical requirements by including complete (yet concise) answer phrases (which are not just entities) that can span multiple lines.
