That’s a legally-driven warning formula, of course, intended to repel the specter of liability lawsuits if a diagnosis goes wrong and the lawyers begin casting around for parties to sue. GruntDoc notices it being used on an item that plainly is for diagnostic purposes (Feb. 6).
“Not for diagnostic purposes”

The disclaimer in this particular instance may actually be quite accurate. It accompanies a CD of X-ray images and a viewer. My experience with radiologists tends to prove that they do everything in their power not to make a definitive diagnosis of anything. All they do is raise possibilities. Read an X-ray report and you will see what I mean. Some pretty nifty high-stepping.
Maybe if you were waiting to pounce like Michael Jackson at a 6th grade birthday party they’d be more willing to be more definitive?
