Evaluation of the procedures in medical applications of X-rays using fuzzy logic

A project is being developed in a large hospital III, located in the city of Rio de Janeiro, with the objective of implementing coordinated actions and procedures, in order to optimize the images obtained in conventional radiology equipment,taking into account the lower risk to the patient and images with information for a safe diagnosis. In this paper Fuzzy Logic was used for modeling the problem of image evaluation of chest radiographs. The evaluation system was modeled as a diffuse network of three layers. The first, formed by the input variables of the system, that were considered relevant to the decision-making processes of the radiographic image quality, and are related to questions observed by radiologists during the report of examination of the chest. The second formed by the outputs of two inferences that evaluate the sharpness and visibility, and a third, consisting of an final inference that groups the two inferences of second layer, providing the final evaluation of radiography. The comparison of the results obtained with the evaluation of chest radiographs by medical experts shows that are consistent using this modeling
