Virbac-Derm Diag app for iPhone and iPad

Virbac-Derm Diag iPhone application is reserved to veterinary surgeons through a code provided by Virbac or picked-up on websites only accessible to vets. Registration validation can take a few hours to a few days.
The access code is strictly confidential and cannot be transmitted to any other person if not a veterinary surgeon or student.

It is a first version that will be ameliorated as much as possible.

Virbac-Derm Diag application proposes two parts:

1°) The “Differential Diagnosis Approach” which aim is to help in the differential diagnosis process in canine dermatology.
Creating quickly a dog’s clinical dossier gives access to key points of history, dermatological examination and then the differential diagnosis procedure.
This latter gives information on the clinical chronological approach required to reach the diagnosis of the commonest canine skin diseases seen in daily practice.
The purpose of this app is to help remind which dermatoses have to be explored step by step. It is not to “automatically” propose a precise diagnosis (or a list of hypotheses) from history and lesions recorded. Final diagnosis is of course, and will remain, the veterinary surgeon know-how and responsibility.

2°) The second part offers a direct access to numerous “media” which have to be downloaded.
These include pdf documents on canine skin diseases and high quality professional videos describing the commonest complementary examinations required in daily practice in canine dermatology.
