Decisions of when to order and how to interpret diagnostic tests form the cornerstone of medical care. However, interpreting a patient's test results in the context of their clinical presentation is not always straightforward. The objective rigor of diagnostic tests may be perceived as providing superior information, compared to the clinical evaluation.
