Clinicaldiagnosis today is an imprecise art. On average, diagnosis of rare diseases is 5 years delayed with 50% of delays impacting the outcome. Misdiagnosis is far too common with a 66% likelihood of disagreement between experts. We are stuck with symptoms based medicine.The nature of physiological data is to blame. Decisions today are based on fuzzy variables (tired, drowsy, weak, tingling, itchy, etc). Better decisions will require precise knowledge regarding the fundamental physiological units of our bodies, CELLS.
