Investigations for
diagnosis by doctors.
Introduction
A clinical skill may contain
one or several different
domains such as: physical
examination skills, practical
procedure, communication
skills, and management.
Acquiring CSs includes three
components: learning how to
perform certain movements
(procedural knowledge), why
one should do so (underlying
basic science knowledge),
and what the findings might
mean (clinical reasoning).[1]
With the advancement of
laboratory tests for greater
accuracy, there is a tendency
for some clinicians and
students to rely more on
laboratory Investigation and
less on the history of the
illness, the examination and
behaviour of the patient, and
clinical judgment. While in
many cases laboratory
findings are invaluable for
reaching correct conclusions,

allowed to forget that it takes
a man, not a machine, to
understand a man[2]. Multiple
