-Medical language is an extension of natural language. However, this language can cause misunderstandings and errors due to its underdeveloped semantics and lack of consistency with standard scientific ideas. This passage describes the essential characteristics of language logic that show why a term like "orofacial pain" can take on different meanings according to classical or formal logic.
+The text discusses the complexity and ambiguity of medical language, highlighting how the transition from classical to formal logic is crucial to ensure precision in diagnoses. Through a clinical case illustrating different linguistic interpretations of the same medical condition, the importance of avoiding disputes using terms that can encompass diverse perspectives is emphasized.
-Despite technological advances, medical language still needs improvement. Natural languages are distinguished from formal languages, such as mathematics. Formal languages have precise syntactic and semantic rules, while natural languages have a more vague syntax and lack explicit semantics.
+Subsequently, medical language is analyzed as an extension of natural language, characterized by a mixture of common and technical terms. The lack of specific syntax and semantics in medical language is highlighted, which can lead to misunderstandings and diagnostic errors.
-A clinical case illustrates the challenges of medical language: patient Mary Poppins received different diagnoses from different specialists due to limitations of medical language. Medical language, developed from natural language, lacks specific semantics. For example, the term "disease" is vague and lacks a precise definition.
+The text also explores the concept of "meaning" in the context of medical terms, emphasizing how the understanding of a term depends on the context and intention of the user. The ambiguity and vagueness of medical terms are discussed, highlighting the challenges in understanding medical concepts and the need for adequate decoding logic.
-Ambiguity and vagueness in medical terms can lead to diagnostic errors. The meaning of a term depends on the context in which it is used. Diagnostic intuition and a doctor's experience are important for formulating diagnostic hypotheses.
+Furthermore, the concept of "encrypted machine language" is introduced in the context of communication between the human brain and medical professionals, likened to computer cryptography. The risks of diagnostic errors due to distorted interpretation of medical messages are highlighted, and the importance of experience in formulating diagnostic hypotheses is emphasized.
-Peirce's logic is useful for ensuring the effectiveness of the diagnostic process. Diagnosis focuses on individual signs and symptoms of the disease. Medical competence is based on experience and acquired knowledge.
+The final considerations reiterate the importance of logic in the medical diagnostic process and suggest adopting an adaptive thinking approach to improve medical competence. The possibility of shifting the focus from symptoms and clinical signs to encrypted machine language to obtain a more comprehensive view of the disease is discussed, involving the entire society in improving the diagnostic process..
-In the future, medical language must integrate machine language to anticipate symptoms and improve diagnosis.
