Visual Dx

Visual Dx or Diagnosis is a database licensed to the Health Sciences Library that can be found on the HSL homepage under Top Resources.  This database provides visual guides and images to help clinicians diagnosis patients.  It also has a differential diagnosis tool that helps clinicians narrow possible diagnoses based on patient presentation of symptoms. Images are provided for each diagnosis and there is a Skin Pigmentation tool available for some of the diagnostic images to aid clinicians in identifying disease and its presentation on different colors of skin.
