A Survey on Biomedical Informatics for Computer-Aided Decision Support System

Abstract

Biomedical computing for computer-aided biomedical diagnostics and the decision support system has developed a platform for the biomedical setting during the last few decades. As early as 1971, there were elaborate and basic applications of management information systems driven by biomedical informatics. According to a 1994 assessment, this field's literature stretches back to the 1950s. Medical decision is more challenging than ever for doctors and other caregivers due to the amount and complexity of contemporary patient information. This circumstance necessitates the application of medical computing technologies to evaluate data and formulate suggestions and/or forecasts to aid decision makers. Over the past two decades, healthcare informatics tools, such as computer-aided decision support, have grown indispensable and extensively employed. This article gives a quick overview of such technologies, their productivity applications and methodology, as well as the problems and directions they imply for the future.
