Goal: To develop a computer-aided diagnostic system for diagnosing different internal medicine diseases based on imaging methods. We focus on focal liver lesions in CT images. Methods: The diagnosing process follows the learning phase from known images. For image description, 22 first-order and 108 secondorder texture features are used. They are used as input for network of Bayes classifiers. Results: The best value of 100% success of classification between hepatocellular carcinoma and non-parasitic solitary liver cysts was achieved. Conclusion: The method allows discriminating between different liver diseases based on computer imaging. The method may be very useful in cases where any internal images of patients already diagnosed are available.
