Abstract

Ayurveda has mentioned etiology, pathogenesis and diagnosis of diseases under a section of Nidanasthana. Acharya Charaka has devoted eight chapters, sixteen chapters are devoted by Acharya Susruta and Acharya Vagbhata has also devoted sixteen chapters in Nidanasthana. Roga Vigyana enable physicians who are lacking the knowledge of various treatises and possessing little intelligence, to discern a disorder with ease. It is a science that describes Roga by means of Nidanapanchaka. Madhavanidana draws Verses from Bruhattrayee and exclusively deals with the diagnosis of diseases whereas remaining verses are reflected in the works of subsequent author’s viz. Acharya Sarangdhar, Yogaratnakara, Bhavaprakasha, Bhaishajya Ratnavali, Bhela Samhita etc.  They have also contributed in the field of Ayurveda by describing various diseases and their treatment. Contribution of Acharya Charaka, Sushruta and Vagbhatta is commendable in field of Ayurveda. Here an attempt has been made to explore the views and the contribution of other authors in describing Rogas.
