Abstract
The paper describes an application of cognitive theories of Tversky and Rosch to prototype similarity of dysmorphic syndromes cases. The knowledge-based system supports diagnostic consultation and research in dysmorphic syndromes. It has been used routinely for many years. The knowledge base is semi-automatically generated from known cases of an outpatient clinic. Some results of the evaluation process of the system's achievements are shown. General conclusions based on the experience with this successful system are discussed.
