Abstract
"Diagnosketch is a visual aid to explain medical diagnoses to patients at the bedside. It uses simplified images to illustrate complicated anatomy and concepts. The title, 'Diagnosketch,' combines the term 'diagnosis,' with the term, 'sketch,' paralleling the way the book combines a medical diagnosis with a simplified sketch. It includes common pathologies seen in an acute care setting, especially ones that are easier to explain with pictures"-- Provided by publisher
