  In this paper, we discuss the implementation of a rule based expert system
for diagnosing neuromuscular diseases. The proposed system is implemented as a
rule based expert system in JESS for the diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy, Multiple
Sclerosis, Muscular Dystrophy and Parkinson's disease. In the system, the user
is presented with a list of questionnaires about the symptoms of the patients
based on which the disease of the patient is diagnosed and possible treatment
is suggested. The system can aid and support the patients suffering from
neuromuscular diseases to get an idea of their disease and possible treatment
for the disease.
