Abstract

This study explores the application of Retriever-Augmented Generation (RAG) in enhancing medical information retrieval from the PubMed database. By integrating RAG with Large Language Models (LLMs), we aim to improve the accuracy and relevance of medical information provided to healthcare professionals. Our evaluation on a labeled dataset of 1,000 queries demonstrates promising results in answer relevance, while highlighting areas for improvement in groundedness and context relevance.
