Diagnostic Tests

Diagnostic Tests are medical procedures used to detect, diagnose, or monitor diseases, disease processes, and susceptibility, playing a crucial role in determining appropriate courses of treatment. Coursera's Diagnostic Tests catalogue teaches you about various types of medical tests, including physical exams, diagnostic imaging, genetic testing, and chemical and cellular analysis. You'll learn to understand the purposes of different tests (such as diagnosis, screening, and monitoring), interpret test results, evaluate test accuracy and precision, and recognize the risks and indications associated with various diagnostic procedures. This knowledge empowers healthcare professionals to make informed decisions, improve patient care, and contribute to the advancement of medical diagnostics in clinical settings.
