The diagnostic model used in the medical expert system Skeletal Dysplasias Diagnostician (SDD) is discussed. The model aims to capture the diagnostic skills of domain experts. Such skills represent high level strategies which apply across different medical domains and hence the presented model is relatively generic. Preliminary evaluation of an earlier version of the diagnostic model, which yielded promising results, has led to a considerably improved model. A sample consultation given in an appendix illustrates most aspects of the current model. The paper concludes by giving the authors' practical insights into the knowledge engineering of medical diagnostic systems.
本文讨论了医学专家系统骨骼发育异常诊断器（SDD）中使用的诊断模型。该模型旨在捕捉领域专家的诊断技能。此类技能代表了适用于不同医学领域的高级策略，因此所提出的模型相对通用。对诊断模型早期版本的初步评估取得了有希望的结果，从而产生了一个有显著改进的模型。附录中给出的一个示例咨询说明了当前模型的大多数方面。本文最后给出了作者对医学诊断系统知识工程的实际见解。
