Clinical methods describe the techniques and analyses used to collect, process, and analyze clinical data. Clinical methods are used to reach a conclusion about a patient in a medical situation. There are various goals that can be achieved by following clinical methods, including diagnosing a disease, planning a treatment regimen, or monitoring the efficacy of a treatment
