[Possibilities of computerized immunodiagnosis of tuberculosis and related lung diseases].

The results of a computer analysis of immunograms for the differential diagnosis of tuberculosis, cancer, pneumonia and sarcoidosis are presented. The findings indicate that computer immunodiagnosis may be used as a supplementary tool that increases the effectiveness of diagnosis in difficult cases. The advantage of the elaborated system is to rapidly apply a systemic approach to the assessment of the patient's immune status and to objective diagnosis by using computer algorithms.
