title: [Use of an expert system as a tool to carry out urinary cyto-bacteriologic tests].
abstract: An expert system for urine examinations was developed. Its validation was performed in a routine work, by comparison of expert decisions with software conclusions. Results of finished examinations or in progress were taken into account. The agreement was satisfactory. In addition to reliability, advantages constituted by availability, flexibility and adaptability were notified. Repeatability and reproducibility were also emphasized.
