It is common knowledge that there is an essential methodological distinction in dealing with diagnosis in Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) and in Modern Medicine(MM). For a long time, understanding the diagnosis in TCM has been quite disregarded. The concept of model-based reasoning can help us to get a new and clearer understanding of the cognitive process involved with TCM. In the first part of this paper I will present the most common models coming from the theory of TCM. In the second I will describe how these models are applied. Finally, I will discuss from a methodological point of view the significance of model-based reasoning in the diagnosis of TCM. © 2007 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
