The application and contribution of Cartesian methodology to the development of medicine in physiology, pathophysiology and therapy have been overwhelming. The accumulation of knowledge over the last 3 centuries in scientific research is largely attributed to Cartesian methodology. This method, which in the past was used for the acquisition of nosological data is no longer sufficient for the interpretation of complex phenomena which modern science nowadays requires. The solution to these complex problems is only possible by means of the application of the theory of systems especially for the functional evaluation of biological feedback.
笛卡尔方法论在生理学、病理生理学和治疗学等医学发展领域的应用和贡献是巨大的。过去3个世纪科学研究中知识的积累很大程度上归功于笛卡尔方法论。这种过去用于获取疾病分类学数据的方法，已不足以解释现代科学如今所要求的复杂现象。只有通过应用系统理论，特别是对生物反馈进行功能评估，才有可能解决这些复杂问题。
