Current testing scope

Clinical specialties represented in Diagnify testing.

This page deliberately lists only the areas currently represented in testing. It is a scope statement—not a claim that Diagnify is validated, authorised or fit for independent clinical use in either specialty.

Listed areas

Testing is currently limited to two clinical contexts.

Each area presents different reasoning, evidence and safety challenges. Results in one context must not be assumed to transfer to another.

General Practice

Status: currently in testing.

The evaluation focus is structured support for undifferentiated presentations: problem representation, red-flag review, differential construction and questions that may clarify the next clinical step.

  • Broad presentations with incomplete information
  • Explicit attention to important alternatives
  • Review against local pathways and continuity of care

Behavioural Paediatrics

Status: currently in testing.

The evaluation focus is structured organisation of developmental and behavioural information, including context, functional impact, alternative explanations and questions that require clinician verification.

  • Developmentally informed history structure
  • Family, school and social context where relevant
  • Clear separation of observations from interpretation
No broader specialty claim: specialties not named on this page are not claimed as supported. The presence of a specialty here means only that it is represented in current testing; it does not establish performance, safety or regulatory status.

Interpreting scope

“In testing” is narrower than “supported.”

A responsible specialty claim needs evidence that reflects the target population, clinical setting, intended users and real workflow. It also needs clear failure analysis, subgroup assessment and prospective monitoring.

Before any specialty claim

  • Define intended use and excluded use
  • Specify representative cases and reference standards
  • Measure clinically meaningful outcomes and errors
  • Examine variation across populations and settings
  • Document human-factors and workflow risks
  • Confirm applicable governance and regulation

Use during evaluation

Keep every output inside a clinician-led process.

  1. Confirm the context

    Check that the case and task fall within the approved local evaluation scope.

  2. Verify the reasoning

    Compare suggestions with the history, examination, authoritative evidence and local guidance.

  3. Record disagreement and failure

    Capture omissions, irrelevant suggestions, bias concerns and unsafe outputs for evaluation.

  4. Retain responsibility

    The clinician remains responsible for assessment, escalation, investigation and management.
