The paper presents the opinion that the medical science supported by theoretical generalizations is directed to mastering its scientific cognition, which will enable medicine to reach theoretical levels. In theoretical pathology, it is essential, as the first step, to define the concept of a disease in terms of dialectical materialism, to develop the concept of human disease, to apply the principles of dialectical determinism in a step-by-step fashion, to be critical in using reductionism and related scientific substantiation of strategies to solve health problems.
