In a survey of 43 veterinarians, Differential Reasoning (Type B) was the most frequently top-ranked AI Clinical Support query type overall (64/213 first-choice responses).
- Why it matters: Veterinary clinicians need structured ways to organize AI query types and understand how preferences shift across clinical stages, but veterinary-specific frameworks are limited.
- What they did: Using a locally deployed LLM to draft candidate query types from de-identified chatbot logs, an expert panel survey had veterinarians select preferred Clinical Support types (A–H) and response formats across five stages.
- The result: A 3-category, 21-subtype taxonomy was created, and post-consultation preferences most often favored Clinical Decision Support (Type D) (21/42, 50.0%); experience and hospital setting were linked to higher Type G (Evidence Search) ranking.
