How does the program work? Note: At the present time all sections are free. After fine tuning the third step is expected to be paid to cover the cost of computer computations. The system is a kind of Artifical Intelligence or Expert system. Doctor-robot asks you the questions. A special algorithm is applied to the set of your answers. The list of diagnoses is made based on the combination of your answers. First and second step use a minimal set of questions required to make a diagnosis assumption. Those questions are the questions that a human doctor would like and should ask you at any visit provided he has enough time. What is the difference between second and third step? First and second step use a minimal regular set of questions. The questions ask about your complaints. The choice of questions is a regular one. The third step uses a complex algorithm that is designed to choose new questions from a set of several thousands questions. The questions are more detailed. The third step questions are about your compalints, as well as more detailed history, physical exam findings and some doctor performed tests. Since it is difficult to answer several thousands questions at once, the third step algorithm chooses the questions relevant to the diagnoses and questions answered earlier. The algortihm is more complex. Third step requires significant number of calculations per second and, because of this, third step is slower. What do the numbers mean? Each answer and disease has a rank created by Doctor-Robot after analysis of medical literature, textbooks, expert opinions and other medical information. Based on your answers, Doctor-Robot finds diagnoses that have high probability, and provides the list. You need to know that you may still have the diseases that are not so high on the list. How to use Doctor-Robot After free registration you will receive the password that helps you to get into the system. Answering the questions you and Doctor-Robot will create the list of possible diagnoses. You may print the list and bring in to your healthcare provider. In order to know more about the diagnoses or complaints listed, you may check them with the search box on the left side of the page. How secure is my credit card payment?
