[Microcomputer-based medical records system for diseases of the female breast].

We describe a microcomputer-based Medical Record for diseases of the female mammary gland. The system is based on multiple-choice questionnaires used by the physician and later transferred to the computer. The computer produces written output for transfer to the patient record. Statistical information can be obtained through preprogrammed menus. The system has been used as the only documentation for the patient group at the Surgical Department, Ullevaal Hospital for more than four years. We discuss system design, statistical results and future development.
