چکیده

Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSS) provide clinicians, staff, patients, and other indi‐ viduals with knowledge and person-specific information, intelligently filtered and present‐ ed at appropriate times, to enhance health and health care [1]. Medical errors have already become the universal matter of international society. In 1999, IOM (American Institute of Medicine) published a report “To err is Human” [2], that indicated: First, the quantity of medical errors is incredible, the medical errors had already became the fifth lethal; Second, the most of medical errors occurred by the human factor which could be avoid via the com‐ puter system. Improving the quality of healthcare, reducing medical errors, and guaranty‐ ing the safety of patients are the most serious duty of the hospital. The clinical guideline can enhance the security and quality of clinical diagnosis and treatment, its importance already obtained widespread approval [3]. In 1990, clinical practice guidelines were defined as “sys‐ tematically developed statements to assist practitioner and patient decisions about appropri‐ ate health care for specific clinical circumstances” [4].

Diagnosis of brain tumor using image processing and determination of its type with RVM neural networks

Typically, the diagnosis of a tumor is done through surgical sampling, which is more precise with existing methods. The difference is that this is an aggressive, time consuming and expensive way. In the statistical method, due to the complexity of the brain tissues and the similarity between the cancerous cells and the natural tissues, even a radiologist or an expert physician may also be in er...
