General
Overview
The check/survey vocabulary used throughout these docs and the headers every request needs.
XUND's API turns patient-provided data into symptom check or illness check results, using a mixture of user input and XUND's medical database.
Glossary
- symptom check — an analysis of the patient's symptoms without assuming a specific illness.
- illness check — an analysis based on the assumption that the patient has a specific illness.
- check — either a symptom check or an illness check.
- symptom survey — the set of questions asked about the details of a specific symptom.
- illness survey — the set of questions about factors relevant to a specific illness.
