Technique plays an increasing role in medicine in general and in internal medicine in particular. The penetration of technology (in the broadest sense of the word) into the methods of studying internal medicine has brought and will bring in the future many new successes, especially in the diagnosis of diseases characterized by a variety of pathological manifestations. However, many authors misunderstand the role of technology in medicine of the present and future, as was rightly noted in his article by prof. A. M. Sigal. This refers to the creation of universal diagnostic machines with an electronic brain and working according to the laws of mathematical logic.
