Clinical applications refer to the practical use of medical knowledge and techniques in diagnosing, treating, and managing patient care. This includes the implementation of medical procedures, therapeutic interventions, and diagnostic tests that help healthcare professionals make informed decisions about patient health. These applications can range from using imaging technologies like MRI and CT scans to identify diseases, to administering medications for treatment. They also encompass rehabilitation programs designed to restore function and improve quality of life for patients recovering from illness or injury.
