Abstrakt     Widespread use of medical information systems and explosive growth of medical databases require traditional manual data analysis to be coupled with methods for efficient computer-assisted analysis. This paper presents selected data mining techniques that can be applied in medicine, and in particular some machine learning techniques including the mechanisms that make them better suited for the analysis of medical databases (derivation of symbolic rules, use of background knowledge, sensitivity and specificity of induced descriptions). The importance of the interpretability of results of data analysis is discussed and illustrated on selected medical applications.
