# CasiMedicos-exp: Annotation of Possible Answers Explanations in Resident Medical Exams

We present a new multilingual medical dataset which, in contrast to previous work, includes not only explanatory arguments
for the correct answer but also arguments to explain why the remaining possible answers are incorrect.

The data source for our new dataset consists of the Resident Medical Intern exams, or Médico Interno Residente (MIR), originally
created by [CasiMedicos](https://www.casimedicos.com), a Spanish community of medical professionals who collaboratively, voluntarily, 
and free of charge, publishes written explanations about the possible answers included in the MIR exams. The aim is to generate a resource that
helps future medical doctors to study towards the MIR examinations. The commented MIR exams, including the explanations, are published in the [CasiMedicos 
Project MIR 2.0 website](https://www.casimedicos.com/mir-2-0/).

We have extracted, clean and annotated the available data so that each document includes the clinical case, the correct answer, the multiple-choice questions and 
the annotated explanations written by native Spanish medical doctors.

From the original Spanish version, we have generated **casimedicos-exp**, a multilingual dataset in 4 languages: **English, French, Italian and Spanish**.
