Diagnosis is a methodology for identification, by process of elimination, of the nature of anything. Medicine, science, engineering, business, etc. are some of the areas that employ diagnosis. In medicine, diagnosis is “the recognition of a disease or stipulation by its apparent signs and symptoms” or “the analysis of the underlying physiological! Biochemical cause(s) of a disease or condition”. Hepatitis B including chronic liver disease is quite common in the world, which may cause damage to hepatocytes. The severity may range from healthy carrier to decompensated cirrhosis.

In this paper we have described an intelligent system for the diagnosis of the Hepatitis B virus disease, as Hepatitis is one of the serious diseases which demands expensive treatment and severe side effects can appear very often. The intelligent system consists of the generalized regression neural network which gives the result for whether the patient is Hepatitis B positive or not and the severity of the patient.
