Tool Categories

Stethoscope
Listen to breathing patterns to detect respiratory symptoms. Essential for finding hidden lung infections.

X-Ray
Inspect internal organs for abnormalities. Scroll to change layers and examine different organ systems.

UV Tower
Bathes the investigation area in UV light to reveal hidden contamination and invisible symptoms.

Medical Hammer
Test survivor reflexes by striking their forearm. Abnormal reactions indicate neurological symptoms.
