Exploring methods of visualizing laboratorial data in electronic medical record systems.

Physicians in their daily practice are exposed to vast amount of laboratorial data in electronic medical record (EMR) systems, that should be taken into account in the clinical decision making process. The aim of this study is to explore the impact of different methods of visualizing laboratorial data on physicians' ability to perform common tasks related to processing laboratorial data. For this end, we developed an innovative computerized system based on a set of methods that we used.
