Abstract
A display system and method for displaying information to a clinician when selecting the next appropriate diagnostic test or therapeutic procedure to order for a patient are provided. The system assists the clinician in selecting the next step based on the information the clinician hopes to gain from the test or the result of the treatment. The system will present general and patient-specific information about the procedure to assist the clinician'"'"'s selection. The system includes a user interface configured for entering desired resultant information of a procedure; a processor configured to determine at least one result code from the entered desired resultant information from a database associating result codes to resultant information; the processor configured to determine at least one procedure matching the at least one result code; and a display device for presenting the determined at least one procedure.
