ABSTRACT:
Disease is non-invasiveIy, accurately diagnosed at an early stage. A plurality of functions descriptive of the patient are mathematically determined. A set of indices for each function is established in advance. Each index has two states indicative of the patient's condition. An integrated pattern of the states of the indices from a plurality of the functions is generated and matched against a stored collection of index patterns whose diagnosis is known. The diagnosis is optimized with the aid of weighting factors for such parameters as patient's age and medical history.
