Abstract

The field of medicine has witnessed a dramatic growth. However, the accurate and timely diagnosis of disease continues to be a serious clinical problem. This is particularly important for Otolaryngology/Ear-Nose-Throat (ENT) disease because ENT disorders can affect hearing, speaking, learning and many other important activities. Further, certain untreated ENT diseases can be fatal. Therefore, early diagnose of ENT diseases is vital. While ENT specialist’s service is not always readily accessible, computer aided smart technologies that can assist general physicians or junior medical officers in diagnosing ENT diseases and subsequently refer complicated cases to senior ENT experts can enhance the efficacy of healthcare system. Despite the significance of computer aided ENT disease diagnosis systems, the research related this subspecialty is limited. Therefore, in this paper, we describe the research project about an ENT diagnosis expert system that can assist physicians in diagnosing ENT diseases. In particular, we will discuss in detail the development, evaluation and potential benefits of an ENT disease diagnosis expert system.
