An otoneurological expert system (ONE) was developed to help collect data and diagnose the work-up of vertigo of both central and peripheral diseases causing vertigo. Patient history and otoneurological and other examination results are used in the reasoning process. The history is interactively collected and is complemented with clinical examination results. The case history data can be either mandatory or supportive. Mandatory questions are used to confirm a diagnosis, and conflicting answers are used to reject an unlikely disease. Supportive questions support or suppress a diagnosis, but their presence is not obligatory. The reasoning procedure of ONE scores every question independently for different diagnoses, depending on how well they agree with the symptom entity of a disease. Diagnostic criteria are set for each disease, in Meniere's disease, for example, the full triad is required. Graphic displays illustrate the linear and nonlinear correlation between the symptoms and diseases. For instance, both second-long Tumarkin-type attacks and attacks lasting hours give a high score while intermediately long attacks score much lower in Meniere's disease. To be able to take even rare diseases into consideration we try to diminish the possibility of a wrong decision rather than maximize the likelihood of reaching only one right decision.
