MedLib Resource Spotlight: VisualDX Online
Join us for the MedLib Resource Spotlight, a 30‑minute live virtual demo showcasing one essential library tool for medical education and practice. Each session offers a focused walkthrough, practical tips, and space for questions. You’ll get an in‑depth look at a key resource and learn how to use its features to strengthen your study process.
In this session, we will be exploring VisualDx, a diagnostic clinical decision support system designed to enhance diagnostic accuracy, aid therapeutic decisions, and improve patient safety. With a strong dermatology component, this application can help quickly build a differential to evaluate the possibilities, compare variations, and improve diagnostic accuracy. Its vast medical image library includes many skin types, and pigments effectively providing access to clinical information and images at the point of care.
By the end of the session learners will be able to:
- Access VisualDx through the library and set up a personal account.
- Navigate the interface and core features.
- Build and refine differential diagnoses using the Differential Builder.
