“…All losses are equal. The second type of loss matrix S2 is defined same as in [4] where the losses differs from each other depending on how significant is recommendation of diagnostic system, The example of using the loss matrix can be illustrated on the next example. For patient i=30 with diagnose recommended by expert j=6 the losses based on matrix S2 are following: for diagnoses j=3 loss is s 63 =20, for diagnoses j=4 loss is s 64 =10, for diagnoses j=5 loss is s 65 =5.…”

Lack of standardization in estimating the quality of diagnostic systems provides many possibilities in developing new methodologies. The paper deals with general method for determination of effectiveness of diagnostic systems in non-invasive diagnostics of thyroid. The result of presented methodology is a single number, which clearly depicts the quality of such a system with no need for further analysis. Together with the general design of such a system an overview of characteristics of a diagnostic system is described.
