How is selecting a problem area different than starting a differential through the search box?

The “select a problem area” option is a way for users, particularly users of our previous version, to quickly build a differential from common problem areas. It is not comprehensive of the breadth of VisualDx but instead serves as shortcuts for areas that have been requested by our users.

The search box allows you to access the full set of findings and diagnoses we have available while “select a problem area” represents a subset of commonly searched chief complaints. You can build the same differential through the search box that can be accessed through “select a problem area.”
