| Localized problems that occur in the abdomen are a reflection of the
major organ systems that occur there. They include the intestinal tract,
the liver, the stomach, the gall bladder, the urinary bladder and the uterus.
Diseases that affect the major blood vessels that pass through the abdomen
as well as problems with the spine and spinal cord can also produce symptoms
in the abdomen.
Adjacent structures, including the heart, lungs and organs of the urinary
tract may also produce signs and symptoms that are identified with the
abdomen.
Potentially life threatening conditions such as peritonitis, abdominal
bleeding, bleeding ulcers, dissections of the aorta, aortic aneurysms
and bowel obstructions can be rapidly identified.
Using our proprietary navigation system, it is easy to rapidly identify
the possible diagnosis behind your medical symptoms.
Armed with this information, we then provide convenient reference material
on almost 2000 different medical diseases. By comparing the signs and
symptoms of these various diseases, you can further refine the most likely
cause of your medical symptoms.
Interconnections to doctors, hospitals, pharmacies and alternative medical
care places all those resources at your fingertips. Direct connections
to other resources, including the National Institutes of Health, Medline,
Yahoo and Google expedites your care.
