Computer-assisted medical literature searching

D J Elpern. Dermatol Clin. 1986 Oct.

Abstract

At present any physician with the interest and relatively inexpensive hardware can access large data bases of medical literature citations from home or office. This article describes some data bases of interest to dermatologists and gives examples of search strategies. Computer-assisted medical literature searching is of inestimable value for patient care, research, and teaching.
