Sažetak

The progress of medicine and biomedical sciences has always followed the progress of other natural sciences. However, during the mid-20th century, numerous technological achievements and innovations have increased its influence on medicine which inevitably led to changes in patient-doctor relations and arose numerous legal and ethical problems. These new and often contested relations in medical profession and patient care can be successfully solved only through a teamwork of experts from fields of medicine, law and bioethics.
In this review we explain the terms „bioethics“ and „medical law“ and point to certain aspects of their interrelation. Particular attention is drawn to medical law which has emerged as a separate discipline of legal sciences and a separate branch of law in the past few decades. Medical law includes all legal aspects of scientific activities, subjects, relations and procedures associated with certain legal effects and represents a collection of various rules from different aspects of law which govern relations in scientific activity.
