Abstract
The creators of fuzzy set theory, who develop mathematical models applied to different technical domains, have also made representative contributions in medical investigations. One of the earliest models created by Sanchez [72, 73] and discussed by other scientists [6, 8, 11, 17, 27, 45, 48, 56, 69, 70, 74, 75, 76, 77, 87] has given some answers to questions concerning a choice of diagnosis. The choice should only be made on the basis of clinical symptoms when assuming that the symptoms are typical of all considered diagnoses.
