Abstract
This paper describes PSUDOC, a very simple LISP program to carry out some medical diagnosis tasks. The program's domain is a subset of clinical medicine characterized by patients presenting with edema and/or hematuria. The program's goal is to go from the presenting symptoms to a hypothesis of the underlying disease state. The program uses a variation of simple tree searching strategies called ETS.
