Medicine not only lacks precision...
It lacks a formal
methodology
Medical practice is a
practice indeed!
Not a formal theory
behind it

Epistemology of diagnostics
Patient is suffering from something
Task of diagnostics is to discover it
The diagnostic process implies
– Interaction & Communication
– Physical measurements
A social construct
A technological construct

The social issue of telemedicine
What about if the
communication/interaction part of the
diagnostic process is technologically
mediated ?
No formal training of physicians to cope
with this situation
– Methodology must be strengthened
– Security and legal issues in data
transmission are just details

What we need
Formalism for data representation
Formalism for data transmission
Formalism for data fruition
Formalism for decision making
Formalism for action performing
– Standardization and formal theory of
medicine

A roadmap to telemedicine
Formalizing medical reasoning
Is clinical judgment computable ?
Classical knowledge not appropriate
Fuzzy logic may be
Diagnostic and therapeutic knowledge is
procedural knowledge (medical
practice) on fuzzy statements

Teaching telemedicine
We have to, at university level
Don't make just examples
Teach methodology instead
Coping with an unreachable patient
Insist on the social interplay of the medical
task
Use (develop) standards for medical data
communication

Warnings
Medicine remains a cultural process
– verify that standards and methods will comply
with different social cultures
Consider the business model of the medical
practice
– Samaritans are not widespread !
