Privacy-Preserving Local Language Models for Longitudinal Data Retrieval in Chronic Dermatologic Disease: Implementation in Pemphigus Patients

arXiv:2605.25020v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Chronic dermatologic diseases such as pemphigus require long-term follow-up, generating extensive longitudinal clinical documentation that is difficult to review comprehensively during routine visits and increasing clinician workload as well as the risk of missing critical historical information. We evaluated whether a locally deployed, privacy-preserving small language model (SLM) could retrieve structured clinical features and generate longitudinal summaries from long-term dermatology follow-up records. In this retrospective case series, thir
The proliferation of advanced language models combined with persistent data privacy concerns in healthcare is driving innovation in localized AI solutions.
This development allows for the leveraging of AI's analytical power on sensitive, longitudinal medical data without compromising patient privacy or regulatory compliance.
Healthcare providers can now deploy AI for complex patient data analysis directly on-premise, reducing reliance on cloud-based, potentially less secure, external models.

Improved diagnosis and treatment efficiency for chronic dermatologic conditions through automated data retrieval.
Increased adoption of privacy-preserving local AI in other sensitive medical specialties facing similar data interpretation challenges.
Potential for a new standard in healthcare AI, where local, federated, or privacy-preserving models are mandated for certain data types.
