Examinations like inspection, palpation, percussion and auscultation are part of ''pratyaksha pariksha''. Nowadays, various new techniques like X-ray, USG, CT Scan, MRI etc. are in use that help augment ''pratyaksha pariksha''. Abnormal findings suggest the underlying pathologies in the body with the use of ''anumana pariksha''. But over-dependence on technology has made the doctors move away from the use of their sensory perception and from prima facie clinical diagnosis. Excessive use of technology makes the process of diagnosis more complicated, costly and time consuming. The most important disadvantage of using technology is that it is reducing the use of logic and reasoning (''yukti'') by a physician. It also has influence on the doctor patient relationship. The most important thing which has been described by Charak is to enter in to the soul of the patient to make correct diagnosis and is somewhere missing due to excessive use of technology. Proper use of ''trividha pariksha'' by a physician with required use of technology, will help him to reach up to the diagnosis immediately, correctly and will also be cost effective to the patient.
