What You Should Know:
– Ahead of the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) Scientific Assembly, VisualDx has announced a collaboration with ACEP to create the Monkeypox Emergency Medicine Project, a physician-sourced collection of monkeypox images. By offering access to images of varying disease presentations on real patients, VisualDx and ACEP are helping to further educate and prepare emergency physicians to test, diagnose, and treat the emergent disease.
– Images in the Monkeypox Emergency Medicine Project will be accessible to ACEP members as well as other users of the VisualDx platform. Clinicians can access the database for support with recognition, diagnosis, and treatment of the disease, as well as patient education and communication. This project is the latest effort from VisualDx to tap into the power of visualization to optimize clinical decision-making and patient care across all populations, including marginalized groups. The company was founded 20 years ago with a mission to give medical practitioners and students access to diverse images and other resources to further medical education and patient health.
