The '''Diagnosticator''' is a small, hand-held device containing a number of technological diagnostic tools and a small [[cogitator]] array that allows a [[Deathwatch]] [[Techmarine]] to diagnose what ails a machine's spirit. It has a number of common plugs and adaptors that allow it to be plugged into nearly every machine of [[human]] manufacture, as well as sensors and scanners that can see through hulls and casings, to detect microscopic cracks and material fatigue, and generally help the Techmarine in his daily obligations to the [[Omnissiah]].{{Fn|1}}
The term is also used in reference to a very advanced [[Imperial]] medical device. While available across known space to groups such as the [[Imperial Guard]] and [[Rogue Traders]], these devices are most commonly associated with high-ranking planetary and other officials of the Imperium. Such diagnosticators can detect and diagnose any ailment known to the Imperium and recommend treatment. They may also incorporate medical kits, [[Servo-skull]]s and other dedicated [[Servitor]]s.{{Fn|2}}{{Fn|3a}}
