Description

All clinicians are trained to make accurate diagnoses. Beginning with the patient’s presenting symptoms, they ultimately narrow down multiple options to one condition. The DSM-5-TR® Differential Diagnosis Handbook can play a critical role in this process by improving the diagnostic process.Leveraging latest DSM-5-TR® classifications from the American Psychiatric Association, clinicians are able to use a trusted 6-step process when presented with, sometimes unfamiliar, psych conditions.

Exclusive, integrated interactive decision trees provide a step-by-step process of asking yes or no questions to find a tentative diagnosis. When the initial diagnosis is reached, tables of differential diagnoses are presented to help confirm or present new options.
