What are the types of diagnostic tests?

Diagnostic tests can be categorized into several types, including laboratory tests (such as blood tests and urinalysis), imaging tests (like X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs), and physiological tests (such as ECGs and stress tests). Additionally, there are genetic tests that analyze DNA for hereditary conditions, as well as biopsies that involve taking tissue samples for examination. Each type serves a specific purpose in diagnosing and monitoring diseases and health conditions.
