CADIAG 1: A Computer-Assisted Diagnostic System on the Basis of Symbolic Logic and Its Application in Internal Medicine

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Medical Informatics ((LNMED,volume 16))

Summary

Given a patient’s symptom pattern, the computer-assisted diagnostic system is able to deduce medical diagnoses logically and to explain them. Not only proven or excluded diagnoses are presented but also diagnostic hypotheses attached to proposals for further examinations of the patient. At present, an extended application in rheumatology involving 1.500 cases with 2.000 symptoms, signs and test results of 200 diseases is being tested.
