Modeling semiosis in Roentgen diagnosis

Abstract
We distinguish between concepts of semiosis in an individual mind and in a community of minds. We show that diagnostic semiosis, as it occurs in Roentgen diagnosis, differs fundamentally from the Peircean concept of semiosis. At all stages of the argument, basic concepts are derived from the Peircean categories of thought.
