Could be diagnosing disease stage/course and not just the specific histological stage (as in stage IIIa).

Subclass of diagnostic process ... add in notion of comparing signs and symptoms to reference in arriving to diagnosis.

The definition needs to be expanded as the use case for the term, which was being discussed, can be applied to not only a disease but also a disease stage or disease course. New definition will be provided soon. Thanks
