Diagnostic procedures

|
|
Different procedures are used to detect a disease. The patient’s medical history, also referred to as anamnesis, is compiled first to establish the diagnosis. Anamnesis is the basis of all further diagnostic procedures. These include not only physical examinations (for example palpation) or laboratory tests (for example blood) but also imaging procedures such as diagnostic X-ray and ultrasound examinations. In the following, imaging procedures will be described in more detail.
