Sure you can't take every test at face value. How you approach the results of something that isn't 100% accurate is important. A potential false positive should mean a follow-up test, not a full diagnosis. Or even just holding onto the information until it can be part of a bigger picture with presenting symptoms. You don't even need to tell the patient what the results MIGHT point to, so you don't encourage hypochondria.
