Diagnostic Games: from Adequate Formalization of Clinical Experience to Structure Discovery

A method of obtaining well-founded and reproducible results in clinical decision making is presented. It is based on "diagnostic games", a procedure of elicitation and formalization of experts' knowledge and experience. The use of this procedure allows formulating decision rules in the terms of an adequate language, that are both unambiguous and clinically clear. Key words: clinical decision making, formalization, diagnostic games, experts' knowledge
