1. A system comprising:
- one or more sensors configured to detect one or more characteristics of a user;
one or more analog-to digital converters coupled to the one or more sensors and configured to digitize one or more analog signals; and
one or more computer devices and one or more storage devices storing instructions which when executed by the one or more computer devices, cause the one or more computer devices to perform operations comprising;
receiving data indicative of a request to perform a non-invasive diagnostic test to detect a medical state of the user;
obtaining information associated with the user to create a user profile;
controlling one or more infrared laser sensors of the one or more sensors to respectively emit one or more infrared signals towards a body part of the user;
receiving, through the one or more infrared laser sensors, one or more infrared signals reflected from the body part of the user;
determining an absorption pattern based on the received one or more infrared signals;
digitizing, using the one or more analog-to digital converters, the absorption pattern;
selecting, from among a plurality of data sets stored on the one or more storage devices, a particular data set corresponding to the digitized absorption pattern;
communicating, over one or more computer networks with one or more databases, to obtain a predictive value for the non-invasive diagnostic test, the predictive value corresponding to a likely result of the requested non-invasive diagnostic test for a demographic group to which the user belongs, an indication of the demographic group being provided by the user profile;
determining a result of the non-invasive diagnostic test for the user based on the (i) predictive value corresponding to the likely result of the non-invasive diagnostic test for the demographic group to which the user belongs, and (ii) the selected particular data set; and
outputting, through a display or a speaker, the result for the non-invasive diagnostic test.

Abstract
A wearable diagnostic device worn on a user'"'"'s body that can provide various types of health-related information to the user is described. The wearable diagnostic device can provide real-time, non-invasive, accurate, and continuous data regarding a user'"'"'s heart rate, hemoglobin level, body temperature, oxygen level, glucose level, and blood pressure. In some implementations, the wearable diagnostic device may also provide electrocardiogram (EKG) data or detection of Parkinson'"'"'s symptoms, such as the involuntary movement of a user'"'"'s hand. A user may configure the wearable diagnostic device to provide information on one, multiple, or all of the health-related information noted above.
