摘要:The purpose of medical expert system is to support the diagnosis process of physicians. It considers facts and symptoms to provide diagnosis. This implies that a medical expert system uses knowledge about the diseases and facts about the patients to suggest diagnosis. The primary aim of this research is to design an Expert System for diagnosing brain diseases. The scope of the work is extended to five brain disorders, namely Alzheimer's disease, Creutzfeldt – Jakob disease, Huntington's disease, Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson's disease. The computer programming language employed was the C#.NET programming language and Microsoft SQL Server 2012 served as the Relational Database Management System (RDBMS). The results obtained showed that the expert system was able to successfully diagnose these disorders corresponding to the selected symptoms entered as query. With this finding, we believe the development of an expert system will not only be beneficial towards the diagnosis of brain disorder related cases in a more cost effective means but also in all diseases as a whole.
