In this article, the viability of Shannon entropy as a metric for diagnosing an illness based on analytic tests of patients. In this case, the analysis measures biological variability of the kidney after a transplant [1]. The purpose of this article is to show a methodology based on Shannon entropy [2] that allows for diagnosing a possible graft loss in patients who have had a kidney transplant and helps to make a better medical decision to improve the life of the transplant patient. The patient data was provided by the nephrology department of the Hospital del Mar of Barcelona.
