Center for Birth Defects Information Services

Abstract

The Center for Birth Defects Information Services currently provides information in birth defects to medical centers. The D/A facility is designed to facilitate differential diagnosis and is being tested in preparation for general use sometime in 1981. A third facility is planned to classify and assist in identification of now unnamed and undiagnosed birth defects. This project when fully operative will assist clinicians in all phases of birth defects diagnosis so that they provide more quickly needed information to patients and their families.
