How can we categorize Test, Lab, Medical Equipment?
Test, lab, and medical equipment can be categorized in a number of ways. Here are a few examples:
- By function: Tests can be grouped into categories such as diagnostic tests (e.g. blood tests, imaging tests) and screening tests (e.g. mammograms, colonoscopies). Lab equipment can be grouped into categories such as microscopes, centrifuges, and spectrophotometers. Medical equipment can be grouped into categories such as surgical instruments, diagnostic equipment (e.g. x-ray machines), and patient monitoring equipment (e.g. heart monitors).
- By target anatomy or body system: Tests can be grouped by the body system or organ they are used to evaluate (e.g. cardiovascular tests, gastrointestinal tests). Medical equipment can be grouped by the body system or organ they are used to treat or diagnose (e.g. orthopedic equipment, neurology equipment)
- By type of sample: Tests can be grouped by the type of sample they analyze (e.g. blood tests, urine tests, stool tests)
- By manufacturer or brand
- By level of complexity/ Automation
- By intended use, such as clinical or research.
