U+8BCA "诊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+8BCA "诊" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in modern Mandarin, where it means "to examine" or "to diagnose," especially in a medical context. It is composed of the radical 讠 (speech) on the left, indicating its connection to language or communication, and the phonetic component 㐱 on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation as "zhěn." This character appears frequently in terms such as 诊断 (diagnosis), 门诊 (outpatient service), and 诊疗 (medical consultation and treatment). As part of the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, it is encoded for consistent use across multiple East Asian writing systems and is commonly employed in both written and digital documents to refer to clinical assessment and evaluation.
