| a differential diagnosis is the distinguishing of a particular disease or condition from others that present similar clinical features.
| |
| a differential diagnostic procedure is generally a systematic diagnostic method used in each individual patient based on their specific condition to identify the presence of a disease entity where multiple alternatives are possible. This method is essentially a process of elimination or at least a process of obtaining information that shrinks the "probabilities" of candidate conditions to negligible levels, by using evidences such as symptoms, patient history, and medical knowledge.
| |
| The project aims to integrate current body of medical literature and newly written articles in the new era of differential diagnosis into conjoined, systematic pages where the availability of comparing between different possibilities be possible for diagnostician.
