DXplain is a computer program designed to provide quick, easy access to a large datatbase of signs and symptoms of different diagnoses, and to remind the user of disorders which might, in part, explain a set of clinical features entered by the user. DXplain is intended for use as a medical education and reference system and should not be used to make a medical diagnosis or to replace the judgement of a physician.

The database used by DXplain includes a large number of common diseases as well as some rare diseases, but should not be considered complete due to a large number of possible causes, including but not limited to a lack of complete coverage of all signs, symptoms and laboratory tests and all possible disease entities. The developer of the system, Massachusetts General Hospital, assumes no responsibility for any erroneous results due to defects in either the database or the program.


Columbia Presbyterian Hospital provides access to the on-line DXplain service (made available by Massachusetts General Hospital) for educational and reference purposes only, with no claim about the ability of the service to perform properly or assist with specific patient problems.
