Illness finder is a diagnostic medicine tool for educational purpose that looks up your patients' health conditions or symptoms and diagnosis and find diseases or illnesses based on chosen gender, age, risk factors, illness, signs, symptoms and prevalence. Illnessfinder is inspired by Evidence based medicine (EMB) and healthcare that aims to apply the best (most reliable) knowledge that is available at decision time. Illnessfinder aims to free up time for the therapeutic dialogue and ensure quality at the evidence based practice, uniting proven medical findings and clinical evidence with systematised data technology.

Description
Lasers, Semiconductor: Lasers with a semiconductor diode as the active medium. Diode lasers transform electric energy to light using the same principle as a light-emitting diode (LED), but with internal reflection capability, thus forming a resonator where a stimulated light can reflect back and forth, allowing only a certain wavelength to be emitted. The emission of a given device is determined by the active compound used (e.g., gallium arsenide crystals doped with aluminum or indium). Typical wavelengths are 810, 1,060 and 1,300 nm.
