medical test is a medical procedure performed to detect, diagnose, or monitor diseases, disease processes, susceptibility, or to determine a course of treatment. The tests are classified by speciality field allowing to know in which ward of hospital or by which specialist doctor are usually these tests performed.
the ICD-10-CM, is the generally most widely used standard by insurance companies and hospitals who have to communicate with one andoter, for giving a overview of medical test and procedures it has over 70,000 codes. This list is not exhaustive but might be useful as a guide, even though it is not yet categorized consitently and only partly sortable
Where available, ICD-10 codes are listed.[1]
