DISCLAIMER

Disclaimer

Not medical advice

Loading Dose is a newsletter and website about artificial intelligence in medicine. It is written for clinicians and is provided for educational and informational purposes only. Nothing here is medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and nothing here should be used to make decisions about a specific patient. Clinical decisions belong to the treating clinician, using their own judgment, their institution's policies, and the full clinical picture. If you are a patient, talk to your own physician.

No physician-patient relationship

Reading this site or newsletter, subscribing, submitting a tip, or emailing me does not create a physician-patient relationship. Please do not send patient information or personal health details through the submission form or by email.

Evidence changes

I try to describe evidence accurately and to say when it is weak. AI tools and the research on them change fast, and a claim that was accurate on the day it was published may not stay that way. Verify anything you plan to act on against the original source, which is always linked, and against your own institution's guidance.

Tools and your institution's rules

The how-to section describes tools and workflows that some clinicians may find useful. Before trying any of them, check your organization's list of approved AI tools and its data policies. Never enter protected health information into a tool your organization has not approved for that purpose. I follow the policies of my own hospital and group; you are responsible for following yours.

How AI is used to make this newsletter

AI tools help me gather candidate articles, score them, and draft summaries. I read every source, edit every sentence, and take responsibility for what is published. Errors are mine. If you find one, tell me and I will correct it.

Independence and conflicts of interest

Loading Dose accepts no sponsored editorial and reprints no press releases. As of this writing there are no sponsors, paid placements, or affiliate relationships. If that changes, any sponsored content or paid link will be labeled as such where it appears, and any relationship with a company whose product is discussed will be disclosed in that issue. I hold no financial interest in any company mentioned unless stated.

My employer

I practice anesthesiology full time. Loading Dose is an independent side project owned by Loading Dose AI Consulting LLC, a Texas limited liability company. The opinions here are mine alone and do not represent my employer, the hospital where I work, or any professional organization I belong to.

Links and third parties

Linked articles, tools, and sites belong to their owners. Linking does not mean endorsement, and I am not responsible for their content, accuracy, or privacy practices.

Copyright

Articles are summarized and linked, not reproduced. Short quotations are attributed. If you believe something here infringes your work, email me and I will address it promptly.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Loading Dose AI Consulting LLC and its author are not liable for any loss or harm arising from use of, or reliance on, anything published here.
