GrepMed Information

GrepMed is a community-sourced, searchable medical image repository for referencing clinically relevant medical images. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and image reference search can provide significant cognitive offloading to busy clinicians and educators who are inundated by swaths of text from the EMR and traditional reference solutions. GrepMed will make high yield diagnostic and management algorithms, guidelines, checklists, evidence summaries, clinical images (x-rays, rashes, ekgs, microscopy) and more easily accessible from any web browser. Clinically relevant images will be upvoted by the community through “likes” and bookmarks. #FOAMed content creators will be able to share their infographic creations to a much wider audience, for much longer than the lifespan of a tweet. Bookmarking and search capabilities will make images previously relegated to the back of your phone’s camera roll much more likely to be rediscovered for teaching or personal use.
