Abstract
Abstract The present invention is a computerized medical diagnostic method. It includes a first database containing a correlation of a plurality of diseases with a plurality of indicators associated with each such disease. A second database includes human experience test results associated with each indicator. An individual's test results are then compared with the second database data to determine presence levels for each indicator. Thereafter the presence levels are compared with the data in the first database to provide a determination of diseases associated with the various indicator presence levels.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
168 words
A medical diagnostic method utilizing a computerized system having a means for data storage and a means for data processing comprising: storing a first database in said means for data storage, said first database having indicator data including a plurality of diseases and a plurality of indicators that are associated with each said disease; storing a second database in said means for data storage; said second database having indicator data including human experience test result levels associated with each said indicator; inputting test results for an individual into said means for data processing, said test results including specific indicator levels associated with said individual; determining an indicator presence level for said indicators by comparing said specific indicator levels with said indicator data of said second database utilizing said means for data processing; comparing said indicator presence levels with said indicator data of said first database utilizing said means for data processing to provide a determination related to the presence of particular ones of said diseases in said individual.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
168 words
A medical diagnostic method utilizing a computerized system having a means for data storage and a means for data processing comprising: storing a first database in said means for data storage, said first database having indicator data including a plurality of diseases and a plurality of indicators that are associated with each said disease; storing a second database in said means for data storage; said second database having indicator data including human experience test result levels associated with each said indicator; inputting test results for an individual into said means for data processing, said test results including specific indicator levels associated with said individual; determining an indicator presence level for said indicators by comparing said specific indicator levels with said indicator data of said second database utilizing said means for data processing; comparing said indicator presence levels with said indicator data of said first database utilizing said means for data processing to provide a determination related to the presence of particular ones of said diseases in said individual.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
30 words
A method as described in claim 1 wherein said indicator data of said first database includes a correlation of said diseases with increased, normal and decreased levels of said indicators.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
32 words
A method as described in claim 1 wherein said step of determining an indicator presence level includes the further step of determining whether said indicator presence level is increased, normal or decreased.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
30 words
A method as described in claim 1 wherein said indicator data of said second database includes a correlation of high, low and mean human experience test results for said indicators.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
40 words
A method as described in claim 4 wherein said step of determining an indicator presence level includes the further step of determining a percent status value for each said indicator, said percent status value being determined from the relationship: ##EQU2##
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
39 words
A method as described in claim 5 wherein said step of determining an indicator presence level includes the further step of determining whether said percent status value is greater than 25%, less than -25% or between 25% and -25%.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
177 words
A medical diagnostic method utilizing a computerized system having a means for data storage and a means for data processing, comprising: storing a first database in said means for data storage, said first database having indicator data including a plurality of diseases and increased, normal or decreased levels of a plurality of indicators that are associated with each said disease; storing a second database in said means for data storage; said second database having indicator data including human experience test result levels associated with each said indicator; inputting test results for an individual into said means for data processing, said test results including specific indicator levels associated with said individual; determining an increased, normal or decreased indicator presence level for said indicators by comparing said specific indicator levels with said indicator data of said second database utilizing said means for data processing; comparing said indicator presence levels with said indicator data of said first database utilizing said means for data processing to provide determination related to the presence of particular ones of said diseases in said individual.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
177 words
A medical diagnostic method utilizing a computerized system having a means for data storage and a means for data processing, comprising: storing a first database in said means for data storage, said first database having indicator data including a plurality of diseases and increased, normal or decreased levels of a plurality of indicators that are associated with each said disease; storing a second database in said means for data storage; said second database having indicator data including human experience test result levels associated with each said indicator; inputting test results for an individual into said means for data processing, said test results including specific indicator levels associated with said individual; determining an increased, normal or decreased indicator presence level for said indicators by comparing said specific indicator levels with said indicator data of said second database utilizing said means for data processing; comparing said indicator presence levels with said indicator data of said first database utilizing said means for data processing to provide determination related to the presence of particular ones of said diseases in said individual.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
30 words
A method as described in claim 7 wherein said indicator data of said second database includes a correlation of high, low and mean human experience test results for said indicators.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
37 words
A method as described in claim 8 wherein said an indicator presence level includes the further step of determining a percent status value for each said indicator, said percent status value being determined from the relationship: ##EQU3##
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
39 words
A method as described in claim 9 wherein said step of determining an indicator presence level includes the further step of determining whether said percent status value is greater than 25%, less than -25% or between 25% and -25%.
