Abstract

It is getting harder every day to reach the information we need among the growing data stack. In today’s competitive conditions, reaching the right information has become very important for managers. Data mining, which is a computer-based information system, has been developed in order to reach accurate and fast information among this large data stack. It is known that the use of this method in the field of health is increasing day by day, as in other areas. In this study, in health-related fields of data mining in recent years in Turkey it aimed to determine which studied the issues and what methods are being used more. In this context, data mining postgraduate studies in health related fields in Turkey thesis have been analyzed taking into consideration some basic criteria. It has been found that most of the studies are compared with the techniques, and studies are conducted on helping physicians and administrations make decisions.
