## Abstract (arXiv)

Purpose: To develop and evaluate a locally deployed multi-agent AI system for radiology report structuring and quality assurance. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included 638 radiology reports from CT examinations of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis dictated by 15 board-certified radiologists in 2023 and 2024. A multi-agent AI pipeline was developed to perform report structuring and quality assurance (QA). The system structured the report into standardized anatomical sections at the sentence level using regex rules and local large language models. It also detected mismatches between the Findings and Impression sections, or within sections; gender-anatomy conflicts; and undocumented communication of critical findings. Two board-certified radiologists independently evaluated a 45-report subset. Results: The multi-agent system structured the Findings sections of all reports (22,270 sentences) into a predefined anatomical format while retaining the original report content. The system flagged 90 (14.1%) reports, most commonly for section mismatches (80 reports, 12.5%). In the radiologist evaluation, both reviewers agreed that 31 (69%) were correctly restructured, 2 reports (4%) were incorrectly restructured, and disagreed on the remaining 12 reports (27%). Both reviewers agreed that no clinically important information was omitted and no fabricated content was introduced. Overall QA performance was rated as "excellent" or "good" in 84% of the evaluated reports, with the remaining reports rated as "fair". Conclusion: A locally deployed multi-agent AI system combined radiology report structuring and quality assurance within a single workflow. The system demonstrated favorable performance in radiologist evaluation. Such systems may support standardization of reporting and quality assurance in radiology practice.
