Sharing health data for research is crucial but raises privacy concerns. Synthetic data, artificially generated to mimic real data, offers a promising solution. However, there's no consensus on evaluating its privacy and utility. This scoping review analyzes existing methods, finding a lack of standard approaches, highlighting the risk of trusting synthetic data without proper evaluation, and proposing steps toward uniform evaluation methods to facilitate synthetic data adoption in medicine.
