What it does

Medical Imaging Review is an agent skill from LeonChaoX/qinyan-academic-skills. Write comprehensive literature reviews for medical imaging AI research. Use when writing survey papers, systematic reviews, or literature analyses on topics like segmentation, detection, classification in CT, MRI, X-ray, ultrasound, or pathology imaging. Triggers on requests for "review paper", "survey", "literature review", "综述", "systematic review", or mentions of writing academic reviews on deep learning for medical imaging.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including reference files (for example `references/DOMAINS.md`, `references/MCP_SETUP.md` and `references/QUALITY_CHECKLIST.md`).

It sits in Research & Science, covering Literature review and Clinical and healthcare research. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: A curated, multilingual library of 182 installable AI agent skills for end-to-end academic research—spanning literature discovery, scientific writing, grant development… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Writing survey papers
  • Systematic reviews
  • Literature analyses on topics like segmentation
  • Classification in CT

Example prompts

  • “review paper”
  • “survey”
  • “literature review”
  • “/medical-imaging-review”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep, Bash, WebSearch, WebFetch, Task, mcp__arxiv-mcp-server__search_papers, mcp__arxiv-mcp-server__download_paper, mcp__arxiv-mcp-server__read_paper, mcp__pubmed-mcp-server__pubmed_search_articles, mcp__zotero__zotero_search_items, mcp__zotero__zotero_get_item_fulltext

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Initialize project with three core files
  2. Follow the 7-phase workflow (see references/WORKFLOW.md)
  3. Use domain-specific templates (see references/DOMAINS.md)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit df5a498. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Write
    • Edit
    • Glob
    • Grep
    • Bash
    • WebSearch
    • WebFetch
    • Task
    • mcp__arxiv-mcp-server__search_papers

    …and 5 more on the same allowed-tools line.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Medical Imaging Review loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~5.9k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 114 tokens; SKILL.md has 190 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~114
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~5.9k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep, Bash, WebSearch, WebFetch, Task, mcp__arxiv-mcp-server__search_papers

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Medical Imaging AI Literature Review Skill

Write comprehensive literature reviews following a systematic 7-phase workflow.

Quick Start

  1. Initialize project with three core files:

    • CLAUDE.md - Writing guidelines and terminology
    • IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md - Staged execution plan
    • manuscript_draft.md - Main manuscript
  2. Follow the 7-phase workflow (see references/WORKFLOW.md)

  3. Use domain-specific templates (see references/DOMAINS.md)


Core Principles

Writing Style
  • Hedging language: "may", "suggests", "appears to", "has shown promising results"
  • Avoid absolutes: Never say "X is the best method"
  • Citation support: Every claim needs reference
  • Limitations: Each method section needs a Limitations paragraph
Required Elements
  • Key Points box (3-5 bullets) after title
  • Comparison table for each major section
  • Performance metrics: Dice (0.XXX), HD95 (X.XX mm)
  • Figure placeholders with detailed captions
  • References: 80-120 typical, organized by topic
Paragraph Structure
Topic sentence (main claim)
  → Supporting evidence (citations + data)
  → Analysis (critical evaluation)
  → Transition to next paragraph

Literature Sources

Use multi-source strategy for comprehensive coverage:

SourceBest ForTools
ArXivLatest DL methods, preprintssearch_papers, read_paper
PubMedClinical validation, peer-reviewedpubmed_search_articles
ZoteroExisting library, organized refszotero_search_items

For MCP configuration details, see references/MCP_SETUP.md.
