Abstract
Case-based Reasoning has become a successful technique in many application domains. Unfortunately, so far it is not so successful in medicine. One, probably the main reason is that on the one side in Case-based Reasoning the adaptation problem can not be solved in a domain independent way. On the other side in medicine the adaptation is often more difficult than in other domains, because more and complex features have to be considered. In this paper, we want to indicate possibilities how to solve adaption problems in medical Case-based Reasoning systems.
