| Overview

| Differentiating [Disease name] from other Diseases
| |
| | |
| [Disease name] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 1], [clinical feature 2], and [clinical feature 3], such as [differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].
| |
| | |
| OR
| |
| | |
| [Disease name] must be differentiated from [differential dx1], [differential dx2], and [differential dx3].
| |
| | |
| OR
| |
| | |
| As [disease name] manifests in a variety of clinical forms, differentiation must be established in accordance with the particular subtype. [Subtype name 1] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 1], such as [differential dx1] and [differential dx2]. In contrast, [subtype name 2] must be differentiated from other diseases that cause [clinical feature 2], such as [differential dx3] and [differential dx4].

| Differentiating [disease name] from other diseases on the basis of [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3]
| |
| | |
| On the basis [symptom 1], [symptom 2], and [symptom 3], [disease name] must be differentiated from [disease 1], [disease 2], [disease 3], [disease 4], [disease 5], and [disease 6].
