How is Diagnosis Made in Toxicology?

Diagnosis in toxicology often involves a combination of clinical evaluation, laboratory testing, and sometimes, environmental assessment. Key laboratory tests may include blood and urine analyses to detect specific toxins and assess organ function. Advanced techniques such as mass spectrometry may be used for precise identification of unknown substances. The patient's history, including potential exposure sources, is also a critical component of the diagnostic process.
