Good clinical diagnostic practice
Description
Patients seek medical help for determination and treatment of various
health problems. Sometimes a combination of the patient’s history and a
clinical examination by a primary level physician are enough to decide
whether medical treatment is needed, and what treatment should be given.
However, often laboratory investigations or diagnostic imaging procedures
are required to confirm a clinically suspected diagnosis or to obtain more
accurate information.
