You never used the word كشف before?? :-D

I'm not sure in what way the word "checkup" is used in the context of lab tests and imaging techniques - maybe if you give us examples we can try to find the right word.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Nice word I never used before:-)

Asker: Checkup includes physical examination AND lab tests, imaging techniques, etc.

Asker: No context, I am afraid! It's just an entry in a medical glossary. I have always regarded "Kashf" as a purely Egyptian word. But even if it is Egyptian, we can resort to it in times of need, can't we!
