History of mathematics
The Role of Mathematics in
Medical Applications
Hippocrates
The West respected him as the
"father of medicine" and the founder of Western
medicine. He proposed "humoral theory" and his
medical views had a great impact on the
development of Western medicine in the future.
using mathematics in his practice.
## Slide 1:
Statistics in Epidemiology
Importance of statistical analysis in
understanding disease patterns
Examples of statistical methods used in
epidemiology (e.g., regression analysis,
survival analysis)
Case study: Tracking and predicting disease
outbreaks
## Slide 2:
Bioinformatics and Genomics
Introduction to bioinformatics and its
reliance on mathematical algorithms

involve mathematical models (e.g.,
Fourier transforms)
Benefits of advanced imaging in
diagnostics and treatment planning.
## Slide 4:
Drug Dosage Calculations
The mathematical basis of determining
drug dosages
Factors influencing dosage calculations
(e.g., patient weight, age, organ function)
The importance of precision in dosage
calculations for patient safety
## Slide 5:
Machine Learning in Diagnostics
Overview of machine learning and its
applications in healthcare
Examples of machine learning
algorithms used in medical diagnostics
