Tropical rain forests, desert heat, subzero temperatures... and 75 pounds of combat gear. The occupational environment of the far forward soldier, sailor, airman, or marine places the skin at high risk for infection, dermatologic disease and/or environmental injury. 

Make a medic’s or corpsman’s job easier
The VisualDx clinical decision support software system assists medics, corpsman and other military clinicians in rapid and accurate diagnosis, therapy and clinical management of soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines with a visual component to their presentation.

VisualDx has been licensed by the U.S. Department of Defense as an educational and point-of-care diagnostic reference. VisualDx covers the healthcare information needs of the diverse modern military by specifically covering healthcare issues pertinent to people of color and women as well as pandemic influenza and terrorism preparedness (bioterrorism, chemical warfare, radiation injury, etc.), STDs, infectious disease and travel medicine.

VisualDx assists the corpsman or medic when an expert is unavailable and time is critical.

Battlefield readiness
Whether delivered on a ruggedized laptop, tablet computer or used in a base clinic, VisualDx supports accurate and time-efficient diagnosis. Your forward corpsmen and medics can now recognize common and rare disease where they are instead of having to evacuate a soldier or sailor and then return them when they improve. Avoiding MEDEVACS saves both time and money and helps keeps your fighting force battle-ready.

The Department of Defense has also performed a rigorous technical review of VisualDx. As part of our past military deployments, the system has been reviewed and approved by USAMITC in the Development Test & Evaluation laboratory.

VisualDx makes it easy. Simply enter the name of the country (or U.S. state) and the VisualDx system returns photographs and clinical information to aid in diagnosis and treatment of all diseases endemic to that country or state.

With VisualDx you can quickly and easily review thousands of high quality medical photographs revealing the variation between diseases as well as within a disease entity and on both light and dark skin.

In addition, you don’t have to know the name of the disease—simply enter what you know about your patient and the system returns photos of all relevant diseases sorted on a patient’s visual clues, symptoms, and other findings such as occupation, exposures, family history, medications, etc.
