The DDxHub diagnosis API lets a user enter a condition and receive a list of diagnosis.
By reaching out to this tool with a GET request, websites and apps can share information about drug interactions, common symptoms of diseases, and treatment options.
How does a medicine API work?
These APIs vary in their applications. It used to be that when a parent wanted advice about caring for a sick child, the first move was a call to the pediatrician's office. The DdxHub API gives its users access to official information about medicines and health equipment from government agencies around the world.Many of these medical websites and apps rely on APIs to provide information.
What is a medical API?
A diagnosis API is a central storage location for several kinds of medical data. The user can also reverse this process, entering symptoms to receive possible diagnoses. These days, that same parent might first check online for the most common treatments. Online medical resources are essential tools for patients, doctors, and pharmacists.

We have created a sample 'Diagnosis API' collection for you. This will depend on the accuracy of the diagnoses obtained. The collection located: https://postman.com/collections/7445d89fda1d633e08dd. Then GET Possible Health Conditions from the Diagnosis API.
In order to achieve best results and enable more features of the API, you have to provide as many test result and symptoms as possible. It allows you to test the API in seconds. Let's assume we have a patient, suffering from strong smell urine, frequent urination and yellow skin. Also the patient has list of implemented Lab Test Procedures: ALT, Amalyse, AST, Total Bilirubin, GT Chlamydia, Appearance Urine, and ABO grouping. By entering and identified the tests values you can send (POST) both Symptoms and Tests lists to https://diagnosisapi.azurewebsites.net. Each observation is represented by a unique ID; in this case the symptom IDs are 164, 151 and 200, respectively. Diagnosis API is available as the Postman collection. The collection includes some endpoints and predefined requests that you can extend.
