diagnoses
Pinpoints the ailment
Diagnoses is the plural of diagnosis—the identification of a disease, condition, or problem based on symptoms or evidence.
A doctor makes diagnoses after examining patients: The diagnoses ranged from mild allergies to serious autoimmune disorders.
The word extends beyond medicine to any systematic identification of causes: His diagnoses of the company's failures proved accurate.
