Abstract :
A treatment risk analysis system was developed and presented by the MEDAS project group. Now, a risk analysis system for medical tests has also been developed to form a complete medical decision support system. Moreover, the current system (a combined treatment and test system) has been redesigned and developed using an object-oriented hypermedia programming language, called Spinnaker Plus, running on the MS-Windows environment. The system has already been used to analyze several neurological problems
