In this chapter, we will discuss the logic of language coupled with mathematical probability. We have seen that classical logic alone is insufficient to determine accurate diagnoses; hence, a conceptual and formal overview is given on why probability can be very useful.

In this chapter, we will discuss the logic of language coupled with mathematical probability. We have seen that classical logic alone is insufficient to determine accurate diagnoses; hence, a conceptual and formal overview is given on why probability can be very useful. By always providing illustrations of instances of clinical cases, we will see how the logic of probabilistic language is able to provide us a differential diagnosis in a ‘good enough’ way. The conclusion is that it is possible to demonstrate that even with the addition of probabilistic reasoning alone, it is not possible to determine exact diagnoses, and, so, other enrichments are being sought for our language. {{ArtBy|
