Computer-Assisted Laboratory Test Ordering and Interpretation

Computer - Assisted Personal ity Test Interpretation : The Dawn of Discovery

The influence of an expert system for test ordering and interpretation on laboratory investigations.

BACKGROUND The Laboratory Advisory System (LAS) is an expert system interface that works interactively with clinicians to assist them with test selection and result interpretation throughout the laboratory investigation of a patient. METHODS To study the influence of the LAS on laboratory investigations, a repeated-measures experiment using clinical vignettes was conducted. To collect baselin...

Fuzzy Rules in Computer-Assisted Music Interpretation

In this paper we describe fuzzy rules used in the developed prototype of a “fuzzy music interpretation system” [4]. The core of this system consists of two essential units, the rule base and the inference machine. The rule base contains general IF–THEN interpretation rules, formulated by an experienced pianist. The inference machine contains both conventional and advanced fuzzy information proc...

Automated Image Interpretation Computer-Assisted Diagnostics

The field of computer-assisted diagnostics is a discipline which has emerged as a result of sustained efforts throughout the clinical and scientific communities to devise systematic procedures and protocols to support physicians in rendering more informed diagnostic decisions. One of the most active and exciting branches of this research focuses on the automated interpretation of medical images...

The Interpretation of Clinical Laboratory Test Results

With the advent of modern medical technology, the availability of hematological and serum biochemical data to the veterinary practitioner has become commonplace. One unfortunate side effect of this convenience is that some clinicians might tend to focus their attention on one or two abnormal laboratory abnormalities and forget to interpret the test results within the entire clinical context of ...
