It gets vitals. Big deal. That is not a diagnosis.
It might be useful in field medicine.

Amazing how much of that technology has come to pass in the years since Star Trek and its sequels were broadcast.

I’m not up on my Star Trek lore, but I thought the tricorder was used for more broad based scanning - i.e. “signs of life”.

Bones had a separate handheld medical scanner, IIRC for his diagnosing.

Or did the medical scanner interface with the tricorder?

I wonder if you could just train a dog to sniff for disease, like they do for drugs. He wouldn’t even have to touch the patient.
