Notes from the surgeon's outpatient practice

Abstract

The problem of early diagnosis is the most burning problem of our time for doctors. Vague complaints, vague signs-that's what we have in the early stages of the disease. An early diagnosis (at least a presumptive one) is rarely made on the basis of objective symptoms. They are often not yet present. Analysis of the "subjective picture of the disease" is of primary importance. A number of minutiae, details often determine the picture of the disease. Clear logic, rather than a microscope, can illuminate their significance. The experienced eye of the doctor must see the disease before it is detected by X-rays Skilful questioning of the patient, thoughtful analysis play an important role. No success of objective diagnosis detracts from the importance of the subjective picture of the disease.
