An expert diagnostic program for dermatology

An expert diagnostic program for dermatology

A D Vanker et al. Comput Biomed Res. 1984 Jun.

Abstract

The first knowledge-based medical consultation program for dermatology is reported. This program uses SEEK, a new facility within the Rutgers University EXPERT system. Our current model gives a differential diagnosis for 13 different tumors with an overall accuracy of 84%. The model uses a formal criteria-based knowledge representation scheme. In addition, the first visually indexed database in dermatology has been developed.
