Structure-based processing includes a method of diagnosing diseases that works by arranging diseases, symptoms, and questions into a set of related disease, symptom, and question structures, such as objects or lists, in such a way that the structures can be processed to generate a dialogue with a patient. A structure-based processing system organizes medical knowledge into formal structures and then executes those structures on a structure engine to automatically select the next question. Patient responses to the questions lead to more questions and ultimately to a diagnosis. An object-oriented embodiment includes software objects utilized as active, intelligent agents where each object performs its own tasks and calls upon other objects to perform their tasks at the appropriate time to arrive at a diagnosis. Alternative symptoms, synergies, encoding of patient responses, multiple diagnostic modes, disease profiles or timelines, and the reuse of diagnostic objects enhance the processing of the system and method.

L'invention concerne un traitement basé sur des structures, qui comprend un procédé permettant de diagnostiquer des maladies. Le procédé comporte l'organisation de maladies, de symptômes et de questions en un ensemble de structures de maladies, de symptômes et de questions correspondantes tels que des objets ou des listes, afin de permettre un traitement des structures produisant un dialogue avec un patient. Un système de traitement basé sur des structures organise des connaissances médicales en structures formelles, et exécute ensuite ces structures sur un moteur de structures de façon à sélectionner automatiquement la question suivante. Les réponses du patient aux questions entraînent des questions supplémentaires et conduisent finalement à un diagnostic. Une forme de réalisation orientée objet comprend des objets logiciels utilisés comme agents actifs, intelligents ; chaque objet effectue ses propres tâches et sollicite d'autres objets pour qu'ils effectuent leurs tâches au moment approprié afin de parvenir à un diagnostic. D'autres symptômes, synergies, le codage de réponses de patient, de multiples modes de diagnostic, des profils ou lignes temporelles pathologiques, ainsi qu'une réutilisation d'objets diagnostiques permettent d'améliorer le traitement du système et du procédé.
