From earliest times, the ideas of ill health and its treatment have been wedded to those of the observation and interpretation of data. Whether we consider the disease descriptions and guidelines for management in early Greek literature or the modern physician’s use of complex laboratory and X-ray studies, it is clear that gathering data and interpreting their meaning are central to the healthcare process. A textbook on computers in medicine will accordingly refer time and again to issues in data collection, storage, and use. This chapter lays the foundation for this recurring set of issues that is pertinent to all aspects of the use of computers in medicine.
