Diseases should be treated well and on time. If they are not treated on time, they can lead to many health problems and these problems may become the cause of death. These problems are becoming worse due to the scarcity of specialists, practitioners and health facilities. In an effort to address such problems, studies made attempts to design and develop expert systems which can provide advice for physicians and patients to facilitate the diagnosis and recommend treatment of patients. This review paper presents a comprehensive study of medical expert systems for diagnosis of various diseases. It provides a brief overview of medical diagnostic expert systems and presents an analysis of already existing studies.
