arXiv:2607.08299v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurate and timely diagnoses are essential for quality patient care. However, delayed recommendation of diagnostic tests and physicians' subjective interpretations can hinder effective care. This study introduces a pathological test recommendation system that speeds up the test selection process using patient symptoms before physician consultation. The recommendation task is framed as a multi-label classification problem utilising the Classifier Chain (CC) technique to consider dependencies between tests. We collected data from the SOUTHERN.IML
The increasing availability of medical data and advancements in multi-label classification techniques in AI are enabling more sophisticated diagnostic support systems.
This development represents a substantial step towards more efficient and accurate medical diagnoses, potentially reducing healthcare costs and improving patient outcomes significantly.
The diagnostic process could shift from physician-led interpretation to AI-assisted pre-consultation test recommendations, streamlining initial patient care pathways.

Physicians receive pre-screened diagnostic recommendations, reducing their workload and diagnostic turnaround time.
Improved diagnostic accuracy leads to more appropriate treatment plans and reduced unnecessary medical procedures.
The widespread adoption of AI in diagnostics could free up medical resources, potentially expanding healthcare access and research into novel treatments.
