Medical diagnosis

Medical diagnosis (abbreviated DS or Dx〔See ''List of medical abbreviations: D'' for variants.〕) is the process of determining which disease or condition explains a person's symptoms and signs. It is most often referred to as diagnosis with the medical context being implicit. The information required for diagnosis is typically collected from a history and physical examination of the person seeking medical care. Often, one or more diagnostic procedures, such as diagnostic tests, are also done during the process. Sometimes Posthumous diagnosis is considered a kind of medical diagnosis.
Diagnosis is often challenging, because many signs and symptoms are nonspecific. For example, redness of the skin (erythema), by itself, is a sign of many disorders and thus doesn't tell the healthcare professional what is wrong. Thus differential diagnosis, in which several possible explanations are compared and contrasted, must be performed. This involves the correlation of various pieces of information followed by the recognition and differentiation of patterns. Occasionally the process is made easy by a sign or symptom (or a group of several) that is pathognomonic.
Diagnosis is a major component of the procedure of a doctor's visit. From the point of view of statistics, the diagnostic procedure involves classification tests.
==History and etymology==
(詳細はImhotep (2630-2611 BC) in ancient Egypt (the Edwin Smith Papyrus). A Babylonian medical textbook, the ''Diagnostic Handbook'' written by Esagil-kin-apli (fl.1069-1046 BC), introduced the use of empiricism, logic and rationality in the diagnosis of an illness or disease.〔H. F. J. Horstmanshoff, Marten Stol, Cornelis Tilburg (2004), ''Magic and Rationality in Ancient Near Eastern and Graeco-Roman Medicine'', p. 97-98, Brill Publishers, ISBN 90-04-13666-5.〕 Traditional Chinese Medicine, as described in the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon or Huangdi Neijing, specified four diagnostic methods: inspection, auscultation-olfaction, interrogation, and palpation. Hippocrates was known to make diagnoses by tasting his patients' urine and smelling their sweat.
The plural of diagnosis is ''diagnoses. ''The verb is ''to diagnose, ''and a person who diagnoses is called a ''diagnostician''. The word ''diagnosis'' is derived through Latin from the Greek word διάγνωσις from διαγιγνώσκειν, meaning "to discern, distinguish".
Medical diagnosis or the actual process of making a diagnosis is a cognitive process. A clinician uses several sources of data and puts the pieces of the puzzle together to make a diagnostic impression. The initial diagnostic impression can be a broad term describing a category of diseases instead of a specific disease or condition. After the initial diagnostic impression, the clinician obtains follow up tests and procedures to get more data to support or reject the original diagnosis and will attempt to narrow it down to a more specific level. Diagnostic procedures are the specific tools that the clinicians use to narrow the diagnostic possibilities.
