French term

diagnostic d'opportunité

French to English Medical Medical: Health Care chiropractic
I'm translating a document regarding the chiropractic profession in France, and have come across this sentence in a list describing the competencies the practitioner needs:

"Évaluer une situation clinique et poser un diagnostic d’opportunité et un diagnostic positif dans le domaine de la chiropraxie."

The same sentence is also presented on this website (which I'm not translating) if you'd like to see the whole list: http://www.rncp.cncp.gouv.fr/grand-public/visualisationFiche...

I came across this description from a site describing osteopathic diagnoses:

"Le diagnostic ostéopathique comprend un diagnostic d’opportunité et un diagnostic fonctionnel :
– diagnostic d’opportunité : démarche de l’ostéopathe qui consiste à identifier les symptômes et
signes d’alerte justifiant un avis médical préalable à une prise en charge ostéopathique ;
– diagnostic fonctionnel : démarche de l’ostéopathe qui consiste à identifier et hiérarchiser les
dysfonctions ostéopathiques ainsi que leurs interactions afin de décider du traitement ostéopathique
le mieux adapté à l’amélioration de l’état de santé de la personne."

So I understand the meaning, but haven't yet been able to determine whether there is a specific term in English that corresponds to "diagnostic d'opportunité".

Any ideas? UK English here.

Tanks for your help!

I think the meaning of "opportunité" here is that of "practical", "advisable" or "appropriate".

"Diagnostic" would be the "identification" of symptoms and clinical signs.

assessment of suitability for treatment

In this context, I think that "diagnostic" shouldn't be translated as "diagnosis", but as "assessment".

That is "assessment of suitability for osteopathic treatment".
