I realize that these questions and more are probably answered in Powers and/or Psionic Powers, but I have neither, nor a gaming budget ATM.

I'm not sure what the question is. An injury or disease means what it means, being stabbed is an injury and having a cold is a disease (there may be other examples).

Detect (Injury and Disease) lets you detect injuries and diseases, exactly as described for the Detect advantage. I believe you can justify getting a bonus to certain skills via Detect if you roll against IQ+Talent, Diagnosis should get +4 I think since Detect provide miraculous assistance. I'd require certain enhancements for them to be useful to Physician.

Healing lets you heal people using the rules listed for the Healing advantage.
