1. Blood Tests: These can help diagnose infections, anemia, and other conditions. 2. Imaging Studies: X-rays, ultrasounds, and MRIs can help diagnose conditions like fractures, organ abnormalities, and more. 3. Skin Tests: Used for diagnosing allergies and some infections. 4. Pulmonary Function Tests: Often used to diagnose respiratory conditions like asthma.
