≪Example: Affinity with AI diagnosis machine≫
In recent years, AI diagnostic machines have been proposed. Based on the results of examinations such as MRI, CT, and X-ray, the system supports treatment, examination, and diagnosis by proposing disease name candidates and treatment candidates to doctors. In order to realize an AI diagnosis machine, analyze MRI images, CT images, and X-ray images based on the accumulation of many examination results and treatment results, and analyze trends and treatment methods for each disease name. Then, trends can be derived from the big data as a whole, and candidates for disease names and treatment candidates can be proposed based on individual test results in light of those trends.
It is desirable that the pre-symptomatic parameter measurement system according to the present invention also do the same thing. As a result, it is possible to have a high affinity for the AI diagnosis machine. In that sense, what kind of treatment was subsequently given to the subject to be measured by the non-disease parameter measurement system of the present invention, and as a result of the treatment, what kind of stiffness or non-illness was measured again? It is desirable that whether or not the disease parameter is obtained is also subject to analysis by the body surface information analysis server computer.

≪Example: Accumulation of data for each disease name and organ≫
The data to be analyzed by the body surface information analysis server computer is linked to disease name, symptom, and organ information and accumulated, and is analyzed by disease name, by disease, by symptom, and by organ. be. The algorithm of the body surface information analysis server computer finds the disease name, disease, symptom, and tendency for each organ.

≪Example: Identify the standard state of an individual≫
In order to specify the health condition of an individual subject to be measured, it is necessary to specify what the healthy condition is in that individual, rather than comparing the collimap or non-illness parameter with others. For that purpose, the individual measurements of the subject are analyzed over the entire treatment period, and the values of the collimap and pre-disease parameters when the subject is diagnosed as completely cured are used as a healthy state for subsequent health management.
