| Abstract: | Decision making is becoming more complex and stressful for individuals and groups especially for medical professionals as a result of huge quantity of data. This paper is on the use of decision tree for treatment options in medical decision support systems. Decision tree was developed and an algorithm to identify optimal choice among complicated options in Surgery (Medical Operation) and Medical management (Drug Prescription) by calculating probabilities of events and incorporating patient evaluations of possible outcomes based on Average Life Year (ALY). This can help the medical professionals in taking decision among the available choices. |
