Greetings, don't worry I will tell you all I know. Differential diagnosis is the method physicians use to identify the disease causing a patient's symptoms. Doctors examines the patient, determine his symptoms, the talk with him about his medical and family history. After this doctors tries to determine cause of the symptoms. Then they prescribe the therapy. If the condition improves then they have succeeded, if not they have to start again. The whole process is differential diagnosis.
