Abstract
This paper considers the problems involved in constructing operational aids for diagnosis. A collaborative approach is proposed which involves utilisation of the expertise of clinician and statistician, working jointly on the analysis of hard data for a particular diagnostic application. The application of this approach to a problem involving cerebral disease diagnosis based on CT scan data is described.Keywords
