The current resurgence in the use of nomograms as diagnostic and prognostic tools has legitimate roots in their effectiveness in facilitating communication between the doctor and patient. By returning to a more classical approach to nomography, graphical insights can further enlighten the patient beyond what can be achieved with current methods, while at the same time simplifying the process. We propose a going-forward extension that addresses the issue of further use of computing technology to continue to enhance understanding.
当前,列线图作为诊断和预后工具的使用再次兴起,这在医生和患者之间的沟通中具有有效性,使其有合理的根源。通过回归到更经典的列线图方法,图形化的见解可以进一步启发患者,超越当前方法所能达到的效果,同时简化流程。我们提出了一个前瞻性扩展,旨在进一步利用计算技术来继续增强理解。
