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.

It includes common pathologies seen in an acute care setting, especially ones that are easier to explain with pictures"-- Provided by publisher
