yes it can be used in various diagnostic purposes. some liquid crystal phases of polymers are more strong can be used in formulations. LCPs like Tolecine and Apatone are found to be better antibacterial, antiviral and anticancer drugs.

types of liquid crystals
A mortar and pestle are used to grind something into a fine powder. They have uses in both medicine (pharmacology) and cooking. Liquid solutions of certain prescribed medicines start with compounds that are crystals and must be ground to a powder to put in the final mixture. The use in cooking is similar.
Liquid crystals start to flow during the melting phase similar to a liquid, but they do not lose their ordered arrangement completely, as most substances do. Liquid crystals will retain their geometric order in specific directions.

liquid crystals are long chain molecules that spontaneously line up into crystal like arrangements. normal liquids don't.
In bulk, they look a lot like liquid soap; many liquid crystals are made of materials that chemically are a lot like soap.

On evaporation the crystals so formed are in the form of solid(in criss cross manner) and on crushing those crystals they become change into powder.
