Doctor's Assistant: AI agent that makes doctor's life easier

This is a submission for the Runner H "AI Agent Prompting" Challenge

What I Built

I have used Runner H to create a Doctor's assistant which makes Doctor's life very much easier. Today, I have chosen Runner H to be assistant for an oncologist. This 'Runner H Doctor's assistant' accepts a specific Cancer diagnosis from the oncologist, searches standard guidelines online, summarizes the finding and gives the following information to the oncologist:-

  1. The Laboratory tests and Imaging required for the cancer diagnosis
  2. The recommended treatment options
  3. Estimated survival (prognosis) for the given cancer patient
  4. Follow‑up and surveillance plan after treatment
  5. Key cautions, contraindications, or critical considerations

After collecting these information, Runner H does not simply spit them to the doctor, rather it organizes and formats them into a beautiful PDF file which can be downloaded for later use as well.

The coolest part is that Runner H mentions all the references(guidelines) it has used to generate the answer.

How I Used Runner H

Here comes step-by-step instruction to create a Doctor's assistant by using Runner H:-

Step 1: First prepare a good prompt that can get you what you want. I used the following prompt. If you want to change anything in the prompt, feel free to do so.

You are a medical AI assistant for oncologists. The doctor 
will provide a Cancer diagnosis (e.g., “Stage III breast 
cancer”). Your mission is to search the latest standard 
oncology guidelines (e.g., NCCN, ASCO, ESMO) online and 
provide the following answers for the provided cancer 
diagnosis:

1. Imaging & laboratory tests recommended for the given 
diagnosis.
2. Recommended treatment options (first‑line, second‑line, 
surgical/radiation/medical treatment options).
3. Estimated survival (prognosis) for the given cancer 
patient
4. Follow‑up and surveillance plan post treatment.
5. Key cautions, contraindications, or critical 
considerations (e.g., genetic risks, lab limits, drug 
interactions).
6. For each point above, cite the specific guideline 
source (e.g., “NCCN Breast Cancer Guideline, version X.Y 
(MM/YYYY), section Z”).

Your answers should be clear, straightforward and 
specific about the cancer diagnosis provided by the 
Doctor.

After you complete your search, Create me a pdf file 
and do the following:-
Write the title - “Stage III Breast Cancer”
Use numbered headings and subheadings.  
After your answer, add:  
“Sources consulted: [list guideline names, versions, dates].”

Step 2: Next, visit the official website of H company to access the miraculous Runner H agent (https://runner.hcompany.ai/)

Step 3: Paste the above prompt into the chatbox and hit run.

Step 4: Sit back, relax and grab your coffee to see magic happen by Runner H. Enjoy how Runner H do the thinking process and actions to execute the given task.

Step 5: Finally, you will get a pdf file containing all the information requested in the prompt. You can download the pdf file and save it for later.

Use Case & Impact

It is really overwhelming for doctors to spend so much time looking for treatment guidelines and recommendations. The 'Runner H Doctor's assistant' will make the life of doctors very easy giving them more time to listen to their patients' complaints. The Agent will do the heavy and complex task of searching guidelines and compiling the information for a specific disease. This tool will definitely help in delivering accurate and latest treatment for patients.
