Abstract:
The development of TempToxopert aimed at assisting clinicians in analysing the results of prenatal toxoplasmosis screening tests. Expert knowledge about diagnostics, screening strategies, and treatment of toxoplasmosis during pregnancy was collected and represented as a rule-based decision graph. Based on actual and past individual findings, the system generates case-specific interpretative reports consisting of a diagnostic hypothesis, recommendations for further treatment, and interpretations of specific test results.
