Tips & Tricks from VisualDx

INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL CLINICAL SCENARIO & SEARCH BY COUNTRY Travelers crossing international borders may come down with simple travel-related gastrointestinal ailments or contract much more serious global infectious diseases like dengue fever, chikungunya, or malaria that less frequently seen by physicians in their hometowns. Clinical information and images for diseases found in over 220 countries and territories around the world is included in VisualDx, searchable from the front page by country or disease. Alternatively, select "Differential Builder" and choose the "International Travel" clinical scenario. What if your patient doesn't mention their travel until you have nearly finished building a differential? Just enter the country as a finding and it will be included in your results.
