Abstract
A method of retrieving similar patient cases from a medical database includes matching a current patient case against a plurality of clinical profiles resulting in a set of matching clinical profiles. The method further includes determining a degree of membership of the current patient case in each clinical profile from the set of matching clinical profiles based upon a degree of match between the current patient case and the clinical profile. For at least one clinical profile from the set of matching clinical profiles, the method includes retrieving those similar patient cases from the medical database that have a substantially corresponding degree of membership as the current patient case.
