title: CompAc information system for traditional Chinese medicine.
abstract: The paper presents a system developed for the assistance of diagnosis and treatment in alternative medicine, based on traditional Chinese methods. The system named CompAc, is a result of an interdisciplinary cooperation and is designed for the physician, specialist in acupuncture. The Compac system allows the determination of the type of energetic imbalance starting from the clinical picture of the patient and establishing whether an organ or any of the viscera are affected. It allows also the indication of different variants of treatment. The diagnosis proposed by the system has to be confirmed by the physician and can be modified by him. The system is also useful for medical training.
