These tools include X-ray (radiography), ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), endoscopy, and laboratory tests. All of these tools are necessary for timely identification of the underlying causes of the patient's symptoms.
• Interrelated Disciplines: Therapy is closely connected with several specialized medical fields, including pulmonology (respiratory diseases), cardiology (heart diseases), gastroenterology (digestive system disorders), neurology (nervous system disorders), hematology (blood disorders), and rheumatology (musculoskeletal and autoimmune diseases). The doctor-therapist often works together with specialists in these fields to ensure the most effective treatment process.
• Common Symptoms: Patients with internal diseases often experience a variety of symptoms, including fever (increased body temperature), cough, palpitations, changes in skin color, general weakness, and different types of pain, including joint and bone pain. The therapist has the necessary knowledge and experience to identify these symptoms promptly and determine their underlying causes.
