Application of a Computer-based Diagnostic Tool to Training General Practitioners
Hanna Wasyluk, Agnieszka Oni, Marek J. Drużdżel · 2002
The last two decades have brought considerable advances in the field of computer-based medical systems. These advances have resulted in noticeable improvements in medical care, starting from ease of storage and access of digital imaging through gathering of computerized medical data, accessing on-line literature, patient monitoring, and therapy planning. Systems addressing the task of diagnosis, however, have rarely been adopted in clinical practice, which has raised questions about their usefulness and feasibility. We show in this paper a practical application of a computer-based diagnostic system, HEPAR II, to training beginning diagnosticians.
