Abstract
A medical diagnosis support apparatus which provides information for supporting medical diagnosis includes an inference unit which obtains an inference result based on a combination of already input information and each of one or more pieces of information that has not been input ('non-input information'), an evaluation unit which evaluates each piece of non-input information by using an inference result on the already—input information which is obtained by the inference unit and an inference result on each piece of the non-input information which is obtained by the inference unit, and a selection unit which selects non-input information to be presented, from among the various pieces of non-input information, based on the evaluation obtained by the evaluation unit.
