Abstract

This topic deals with the computer-assisted evaluation of the questions of which several alternative diagnostic states might apply to a particular patient. We are also concerned here with the choice of therapy once a disease presence has been established. The computer-assistance scenario of this type must take into account both the types of diseases for which it is being instituted and possibly large amounts of patient data.
