Clinically intelligent diagnostic devices and methods

摘要

The present invention is related to a method of determining a cause of one or more medical symptoms exhibited by a subject, the method comprising:
(a) obtaining a biological sample from the subject;
(b) obtaining an array of different probes or different sets of probes, wherein each probe or set of probes selectively interacts with a target associated with a different known cause of the one or more medical symptoms;
(c) applying the biological sample to the probes in the array under conditions that enable all of the probes to selectively interact with any targets in the biological sample;
(d) detecting interactions; and
(e) analyzing interactions to determine a cause of the one or more medical symptoms.
