The motivation for our work is to develop an efficient method of classification for medical images, which will be able to distinguish healthy patient from diseases one, using neural networks committees. In this work the possibility of using different committee methods is analyzed. It is shown, that for successfully solving the given task, any reviewed committee method may be used, because their results have the same reliability of classification.
