VisualDx

Introduction

Searchable by symptoms, signs, and patient factors, VisualDx is a path to a customized differential diagnosis. The images and graphics speed comparison, recognitions and clinical decision making. VisualDx is used to validate clinical decisions, access next steps for management and care, and for patient education.

VisualDx combines medical knowledge, standardized terminology, search, and medical images to deliver concise and accurate answers. Variation in skin tone and presentation are displayed to allow quick search by diagnosis, build a patient-specific differential, or look up drug-induced adverse reactions by medication – all at the point of care.

• Visually confirm a diagnosis by comparing medical images to your patient’s presentation.
• Review diagnostic pearls and best tests at the point of care to aid with diagnosis.
