Today’s medical diagnostic is complex. It includes a wide variety of components (problem-solving, pattern recognition, decision making, a judgment under uncertainty) and
involves the collection of facts coming from the patient interview, the results of laboratory
exams, or the clinical examination. Moreover, nowadays, medical diagnostic mostly deals
with formalization. As a consequence, intelligent decision-support systems appeared to be a significant component of the doctor’s medical reasoning.

This sort of technological mediation leads to a swarm of ethical concerns that deal with artificial moral agency, distributed morality, technological determinism, etc.
