Diagnostic method and device performing the same

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a diagnostic method and a device performing the same. According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a diagnostic device is a diagnostic device that uses a test kit including a specimen plate having a specimen region in which a specimen is smeared and a patch plate configured to store a contact-type patch, which comes into contact with the specimen to stain the specimen, and the diagnostic device includes a body having a loading region in which the test kit is placed, a moving unit configured to move the patch plate and the specimen plate of the test kit relative to each other so that the specimen placed in the test kit is smeared in the specimen region, and a contact unit configured to move a structure of the test kit such that the contact-type patch comes into contact with the smeared specimen so that the smeared specimen is stained.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
