We used LLMs to transform unstructured clinical reports into structured records. We built a complete workflow, including a UI, and benchmarked various LLM sizes through both prompt engineering and fine-tuning. Our fine-tuned smaller models matched or even surpassed the larger ones, making them ideal for settings with limited computational resources. Finally, we validated a novel dataset of annotated English and German translations of clinical summaries using automated metrics alongside expert manual review.enLLMClinical DataInformation ExtractionFine-tuningClinical ReportELMTEX: Fine-Tuning LLMs for Structured Clinical Information Extraction.
