Medical Specialties Diagnostic specialties Clinical laboratory sciences(临床检验学) are the clinical diagnostic services which apply laboratory techniques to diagnosis and management of patients. In the United States these services are supervised by a pathologist. The personnel that work in these medical laboratory departments are technically trained staff who do not hold medical degrees but who usually hold an undergraduate medical technology degree, who actually perform thetests, assays, and procedures needed for providing the specific services. Subspecialties include Transfusion medicine, Cellular pathology, Clinical chemistry, Hematology, Clinical microbiology and clinical immunology Pathology as a medical specialty (Ff) is the branch of medicine that deals with the study of diseases and the morphologic, physiologic changes produced by them. As a diagnostic specialty, chain reaction(PCR), immunohistochemistry, cytogenetics, gene rearrangements studies anfo oe pathology can be considered the basis of modern scientific medical knowledge and plays a large role in evidence-based medicine. Many modern molecular tests such as flow cytometry, polymerase fluorescent in situ hybridization( FISH)fall within the territory of pathology Radiology (it f3 F)is concerned with imaging of the human body, e. g. by x-rays, x-ray computed Clinical neurophysiology(临床神经生理学) is concerned with testing the physiology or function of the central and peripheral aspects of the nervous system. these kinds of tests can be divided into recordings of: (1)spontaneous or continuously running electrical activity, or(2)stimulus evoked responses. Subspecialties include Electroencephalography, Electromyography, Evoked potential Nerve conduction study and Polysomnography. Sometimes these tests are performed by techs without a medical degree, but the interpretation of these tests is done by a medical professional Diagnostic specialties: ▪ Clinical laboratory sciences (临床检验学) are the clinical diagnostic services which apply laboratory techniques to diagnosis and management of patients.

As a diagnostic specialty, pathology can be considered the basis of modern scientific medical knowledge and plays a large role in evidence-based medicine. Many modern molecular tests such as flow cytometry, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), immunohistochemistry, cytogenetics, gene rearrangements studies and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) fall within the territory of pathology. ▪ Radiology (放射学) is concerned with imaging of the human body, e.g. by x-rays, x-ray computed tomography, ultrasonography, and nuclear magnetic resonance tomography. ▪ Clinical neurophysiology (临床神经生理学) is concerned with testing the physiology or function of the central and peripheral aspects of the nervous system. These kinds of tests can be divided into recordings of: (1) spontaneous or continuously running electrical activity, or (2) stimulus evoked responses.
