Goal 1: Surpassing Human-Level Expertise.

Goal 2: Emergent Properties of Medical LLM with the Model Size Scaling Up.

This survey provides a comprehensive overview of the principles, applications, and challenges faced by LLMs in medicine. We address the following specific questions:

1. How should medical LLMs be built?
2. What are the measures for the downstream performance of medical LLMs?
3. How should medical LLMs be utilized in real-world clinical practice?
4. What challenges arise from the use of medical LLMs?
5. How should we better construct and utilize medical LLMs?

This survey aims to provide insights into the opportunities and challenges of LLMs in medicine, and serve as a practical resource for constructing effective medical LLMs.
