Understanding Medical Tests

Why Do Doctors Use Tests?

Medical tests help doctors find out what's happening inside your body. They use knowledge of anatomy and physiology to interpret results and keep you healthy.

Common Tests

  • X-rays: Show bones and some soft tissues.
  • Blood tests: Check for infections, blood sugar, and more.
  • Stethoscopes: Listen to your heart and lungs.

Everyday Relevance

When you feel unwell, these tests guide doctors to the right treatment so you can recover quickly.

Examples

  • A blood test can show if you have an infection.

  • An X-ray can reveal a broken bone after a fall.
