<p>The present invention relates in a broad aspect to assurance of quality and safety of medical applications determining - or suggesting - diagnosis and/or treatment. In general, such applications are according to the present invention applications which are designed to operate without assistance of a medical adviser in daily use and accordingly these applications must be supervised in some sense in order to be able to guarantee that diagnoses and/or treatments determined by these applications are not determined in a manner that patients are exposed to life threatening treatment due to malfunctioning of these applications. In the general perspective according to the present invention, treatment is suggested based on a diagnosis and a diagnosis is viewed upon as recognition of a pattern. For instance, a diagnosis is the result of recognition of a pattern of antibody substances in a sample taken from the tissue of a patient. Furthermore, the term diagnosis has been given a broad interpretation in the present content so as to include - and/or even be- determination of treatment. The philosophy behind such an approach is that the determination of a treatment is according to the present invention based on determination of a pattern. For instance in case of the prescription of a drug preventing attacks of Multiple Sclerosis, a measured blood sample may be analyzed for patterns of matter in the sample and once a pattern is recognized the treatment assigned to said pattern is the treatment suggested.</p> |
