Where Does the Patient Go in Quantification? Quality Cannot be Measured

At the time of Augustus, thanks to the augustinian plague, medicine, represented mainly by the Greek people in Rome at that time, is among the so-called artes professions. Originally there belonged a lawyer, teacher and surveyor, in the concept of the Roman profession, who was both an architect and a builder. These professions represented a certain art in their operation, a significant internal, subjective deposit with a high degree of education, the ability to know. Thanks to technology, the contemporary world tends, because it is a technical area, to move everything to try to measure everything. This trend also significantly instemlines the field of artes professions, an exception to today’s form of surveying. In medicine, the importance of the subjective component begins to disappear. There is a tendency towards objectification, i.e., measurement. This leads to a system where the doctor already loses the ability to examine the patient at the expense of paraclinical examinations – these are imaging methods, chemical laboratory methods. The doctor has trouble perceiving the patient’s difficulties with his senses – to hear, to see, to feel, to perceive psychological problems.
