Abstract
Emergency physicians face numerous questions regarding proper management of patients and selection of the best laboratory test or imaging every day.

We assessed these characteristics in the previous parts of educational article series in Emergency journal. In the present manuscript, we will describe how to use these screening characteristics for selecting the right diagnostic tools.
