The serological diagnosis of acute viral hepatitis is complex for both practitioners and students. We have developed an expert system to teach the serological diagnosis of acute viral hepatitis in order to help non-specialists in deciding on the diagnosis. Three levels of increasing difficulty have been devised. The procedure consists of the following steps: choice of first-line examinations; discontinuation of the examinations in cases where the diagnosis is ascertained; choice of the most discriminant examination in cases where the diagnosis is doubtful. The value of this computer-assisted teaching must be confirmed by randomized studies involving a group of students trained by "classical" methods and a group of students trained by a computer-assisted method.
