  • Title: Diagnostic decision support for prostate lesions.
    Author: Bartels PH, Thompson D, Montironi R, Hamilton PW, Scarpelli M.
    Journal: Pathol Res Pract; 1995 Sep; 191(9):945-57. PubMed ID: 8606877.
    Abstract:
    The diagnostic evaluation of premalignant and malignant lesions of the prostate may benefit from the application of an inference network. Used as a diagnostic decision support system, an inference network provides standardized assessment of diagnostic clues which is supported by computer graphics and comparison imagery, uncertainty management by possibility and probabilistic schemes and the systematic combination of different pieces of diagnostic evidence. This assessment results in a numeric measure of belief in the final diagnosis.
