Neurological Syndromes Unknown Cases

A list of unknown cases will be added here soon. 
 

Unknown cases are meant to be exchanged or discussed on forums such as mailing lists for doctors.  The probabilities given by the software are not to be taken too seriously at this stage.  A high ranking of a particular disease in an unknown case means that one should take seriously the possibility that this may a diagnosis for the patient, but people should think seriously of other diagnoses since this is a tool under construction that is meant to supplement a clinician's thinking rather than replace clinical wisdom.  At this stage it gets many cases right but often goes off in wrong directions due to incomplete information in the database.  Users are encouraged to help modify or add information to the database to improve its information.

Typically a clinician would give the hyperlink of the case to colleague to help elicit suggestions on the diagnosis and workup.  You can use these hyperlinks on the internet, for example in discussion group lists.  The hyperlink is given when you finish submitting the case and it also appears in the log of cases.  Please let us know if you make a diagnosis - we will then add the case to the Educational Cases. 

All cases are real, contributed by doctors involved.  For more details about Unknown Cases, how to submit them and get access to the software click here.
