VisualDx is a clinical decision support tool, which you can use to build a diagnosis based on a patient's clinical findings.

You can:

• Build up diagnoses by searching for various symptoms, and choose the patient's characteristics (age and gender).
• Search for physical effects that may present as a result from taking certain medications. 
• Read synopses of diseases and conditions, along with what to look for, differential diagnoses, and best tests to diagnose a certain disease or condition.

On the Pumerantz Library home page, click on the E-Resources tab in the top menu header bar.

In the database listings, click on the "V" icon in the filter section near the top of the page and click on VisualDX
