Diagnostic systems and methods with global data center and local autonomous cell

A method for diagnosing diseases in human patients comprising:

• providing a set of global data to a global data center, wherein the global data comprises data from a tissue diffractometer;
• processing the set of global data and categorizing the processed set of global data into data clusters using a processor coupled to the global data center, wherein each data cluster corresponds to a diagnostic indicator for assessment of a physiological or pathological condition;
• measuring a local diffraction data of a local patient using a local tissue diffractometer of a local autonomous cell, wherein the local tissue diffractometer is configured to perform one or both of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements, and wide angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) measurements;
• communicating the local diffraction data and local patient data from the local autonomous cell to the global data center;
• processing the local diffraction data and comparing the processed local diffraction data with the data clusters to determine a local diagnostic indicator for the local patient using the processor;
• and
• communicating the local diagnostic indicator from the global data center to the local autonomous cell.
